The top tether anchors are at the bottom rear of the seatback for each seating position in the second row.

Be sure to use an anchor on the same side of the vehicle as the seating position where the child restraint will be placed.

The third row has one top tether anchor at the bottom rear of the center seatback. This anchor should be used for the center seating position only. Never install two top tethers using the same top tether anchor.

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 3‑44 for additional information.
