Top tether anchorage points
Volvo vehicles are equipped with child restraint
top tether anchorages in the rear seating posi-
tions. They are located on the rear sides of the
backrests.
Using the top tether anchorages
1.
Place the child restraint on the rear seat.
2.
Release the backrest and tilt it forward to
access the anchorage. Attach the hook to
the anchorage. Return the seat back to the
upright position and make sure it locks in
place.
G026487
Route the strap under the head restraint
WARNING
Be sure to fasten the child tether attachment
correctly to the anchor. If it is not correctly
fastened, the child seat may not be properly
restrained in the event of a collision.
3.
Route the top tether strap under the head
restraint and fasten its attachment to the
anchorage.
4.
Firmly tension the top tether strap accord-
ing to the child restraint manufacturer's
instructions. Tension the top tether strap
only after the lower anchor straps or the
seat belt have been firmly tensioned.
See page 43 for information on securing the
child restraint to ISOFIX lower anchors.
WARNING
•
Never route a top tether strap over the
top or around the head restraint. It
should always be routed under the head
restraint.
•
Child restraint anchorages are designed
to withstand only those loads imposed
by correctly fitted child restraints. Under
no circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts or harnesses. The
anchorages are not able to withstand
excessive forces on them in the event of
collision if full harness seat belts or adult
seat belts are installed to them. An adult
who uses a belt anchored in a child
restraint anchorage runs a great risk of
suffering severe injuries should a colli-
sion occur.
•
Do not install rear speakers that require
the removal of the top tether anchors or
interfere with the proper use of the top
tether strap.
