Front passenger seat: adjustment and
assembly accor
ding to the Top Tether belt.
Child seats with the Top Tether system come
with a str
ap for securing the seat to the vehi-
cle anchor point, located at the back of the
rear seat backrest and provide greater re-
straint.
The objective of this strap is to reduce for-
ward movements of the child seat in a crash,
to reduce the risk of injuries to the head from
hitting the inside of the vehicle.
Using the Top Tether in rear-facing moun-
ted seats

turer instructions to learn the proper way to
install the Top Tether strap.
