later in this section.
2.3.2. Route the top tether (1)
through the center loop (2).
2.3.3. Attach the top tether (1) to
the driver side top tether
metal anchor (3).
2.3.4. Make sure the child restraint
top tether hook is
completely closed and
secured to the top tether
anchor.
3. Tighten the top tether per the child
restraint manufacturer's instructions.
When the top tether is properly
tightened, the loop may bend. This is
normal and will not damage the vehicle.
If child restraints are installed in both
outboard positions, both top tethers can
be attached to the center anchor. Top
tethers can be attached for child
restraints in all three rear seating
positions at the same time, following the
routing instructions above.
4. Before placing a child in the child
restraint, make sure it is securely held in
place. To check, grasp the child restraint
at the LATCH path and attempt to move
it side to side and back and forth. There
should be no more than 2.5 cm (1 in) of
movement for proper installation.
