ringsfor two LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child
restraint systems are installed on the left and

Top Tether
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Always engage the rearseat backrests in an
upright position before installing the Top
Tether belt. Push and pull the rear seat
backrests to check whether they are engaged
correctly. If the seat backrest is not locked
properly, the seat backrest could fold. The
child seat would no longer be supported
properly or positioned to provide its intended
benefit.That could cause serious or even fatal
injuries.
Example: Top Tether belt with one belt strap
Top Tether provides an additional connection
between the LATCH-type (ISOFIX) child
restraint system secured with ISOFIX and the
rear seat. This helps reduce the risk of injury
even further. If the child restraint system is
installed with Top Tether, this should always
be used.
The Top Tether anchorage points are installed
in the rear compartment behind the outer
head restraints on the parcel shelf.
There is also another Top Tether anchorage
point behind the central rear seat.
