Tether Connector Strap

WARNING! Only use tether connector strap for rear- facing tether installation.

Because every vehicle model is different, sometimes you cannot find a location to properly anchor the tether. Use the tether connector strap to assist in creating an anchor point (Fig. D).

1Find a fixed vehicle anchor point that is bolted to the floor.

If you cannot find an acceptable location to d create an anchor point, contact the vehicle manufacturer to identify a suitable tether connection point.

2Route the strap around the fixed vehicle anchor point.

3Take the metal D-ring and thread it through the webbing loop on the other end of the strap (Fig. D).

4Pull the metal D-ring all the way through until the strap is tight.

5Use the D-ring as an attachment point for the hook on the

tether strap.

NOTE : Store the tether connector strap in the tether pouch when not in use.

The child seat is secure when it cannot be moved front-to-back or side-to- side more than 2.5 cm (1 inch) at the belt path.
