2-54 Seats and Restraints
Top Tether Anchors
The top tether anchors for each rear
seating position are located under
the covers, on the back of the rear
seatback. Be sure to use an anchor
located on the same side of the
vehicle as the seating position
where the child restraint will be
placed.
Do not secure a child restraint in a
position without a top tether anchor
if a national or local law requires
that the top tether be attached, or if
the instructions that come with the
child restraint say that the top tether
must be attached.
According to accident statistics,
children and infants are safer
when properly restrained in a child
restraint system or infant restraint
system secured in a rear seating
position. See Where to Put the
Restraint
on page 2‑50
for
additional information.

could be injured. To reduce the
risk of serious or fatal injuries
during a crash, attach only one
child restraint per anchor.
