● During installation of some models of
group I, II and III child seats in the rear seat,
difficulty may arise in mounting given that
the seat comes into contact with the head re- straint. In this case, adjust the height of the
head restraint or remove it from the seat fol-

child seat, replace the head restraint in its
original position.

Top Tether retainer straps* Fig. 67
Position of the Top Tether rings on the
back of the rear seat. Child seats with the Top Tether system come
with a strap for securing the seat to the vehi-
cle anchor point, located at the back of the
rear seat backrest and provide greater re-
straint.
The objective of this strap is to reduce the
forward movement of the child seat in a
crash, to reduce the risk of injuries to the
head from hitting the inside of the vehicle.
Using the Top Tether in rear-facing mounted
seats
Currently, there are very few rear-facing child
safety seats that have Top Tether. Please
carefully read and follow the seat manufac-
turer instructions to learn the proper way to
install the Top Tether strap. WARNING
An undue installation of the safety seat will
increase the risk of injury in the event of a
crash.
● Never tie the retainer strap to a hook in the
luggage compartment.
● Never secure or tie luggage or other items
to the lower anchorages (ISOFIX) or the upper
ones (Top Tether). Fitting the Top Tether* child restraint
to the anchoring point
