A tether anchorage point is provided behind each rear seating position.

If you have a child seat that comes with a tether but can be installed with a seat belt, the tether may be used for additional security.

Secure the tether strap hook to the anchor.
Tighten the tether strap as instructed by the child seat manufacturer.
