Child Seat Tether Attachment: Description and Operation

Tether Anchor Hardware
If child safety belt anchor tether is required for the child safety seat but is not provided by the child safety seat manufacturer, child safety belt anchor tether hardware can be obtained at no charge from any Ford or Lincoln/Mercury dealer. Attachment holes at each rear seating position have been provided in all vehicles.

Canadian Vehicles Only
All vehicles built for sale in Canada include a child safety belt anchor tether hardware kit for use with Canadian Child Safety Seats.

Some aftermarket child safety seats provide a tether strap which goes over the back of the vehicle seat and attaches to an anchor in the floor or panel behind the rear seat.

Attachment holes (at each rear seating position) have been provided to attach the child safety belt anchor tether hardware kit.
