Third row seat and tether anchorage hardware
The tether has to be attached to the
anchorage locations on the floor
behind the third row seating
position (third row seat only) with a
tether anchorage hardware kit.
Tether anchorage hardware kits (part number 613D20) including
instructions, may be obtained at no charge from any Ford or
Lincoln-Mercury dealer. All vehicles built for sale in Canada include a
tether anchor hardware kit.
Be sure to follow the child safety seat manufacturer’s instructions.
To gain access to the anchoring bolt, cut through the U-shaped tether
location outlines on the carpet of the luggage area. Remove the bolt that
is currently in the anchor location.
Tighten the anchor according to specifications. Otherwise, the
safety seat may not be properly secured and the child may be
injured in a sudden stop or collision.
To properly use child safety tethers in the 3rd row seat position,
REMOVE THE PARCEL SHELF and tether child safety seat to
the tether anchor located on the floor behind the 3rd row seat.
