Some child safety seats provide a tether strap which goes over the back of the vehicle seat and attaches to an anchorage in the panel behind the rear seat.
If a tethered safety seat is used, place it in a seating position with the tether strap attached at the tether anchorage point. Attachment holes (at each rear seating position) have been provided for the tether anchor hardware kit.
