1-28 Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
Front-facing (webbing-mounted) — step 2
2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-
ments to the LATCH lower anchors. Check
to make sure that the LATCH attachment is
properly attached to the lower anchors.
If the child restraint is equipped with a top
tether strap, route the top tether strap and
secure the tether strap to the tether anchor
point. See “Installing top tether strap” later in
this section. Do not install child restraints
that require the use of a top tether strap in
seating positions that do not have a top
tether anchor.
Front-facing (rigid-mounted) — step 2
3. The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the seatback.
If necessary, remove the headrest to obtain
the correct child restraint fit. If the headrest
is removed, store it in a secure place. Be
sure to reinstall the headrest when the
child restraint is removed. See “Adjus-
table headrests” earlier in this section for
headrest adjustment information.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable headrest and it is interfering with
the proper child restraint fit, try another
seating position or a different child restraint.
Front-facing — step 4
4. For child restraints that are equipped with
webbing-mounted attachments, remove any
additional slack from the anchor attach-
ments. Press downward and rearward firmly
in the center of the child restraint with your
knee to compress the vehicle seat cushion
and seatback while tightening the webbing
of the anchor attachments.
5. Tighten the tether strap according to the
manufacturer’s instructions to remove any
slack.
