Note: ISOFIX is the international standard for attachment points for child safety seats in
passenger vehicles.
Note: If the combined weight of the child and the child safety seat is over 29 kg, Tesla
recommends attaching the safety seat using the seat belt and upper tether strap. In addition to
safety, this has the added
benefit of ensuring the seat belt reminder does not stay lit. Always
follow the child safety seat manufacturer

Seating Larger Children
If a child is too large to
fit into a child safety
seat, but too small to safely fit into the
standard seat belts, use a booster seat
appropriate for the child

Installing ISOFIX Child Seats
Lower ISOFIX anchors are provided in the second row outboard seats. The anchors are
located between the seat

Once installed, test the security of theinstallation before seating a child. Attempt to twist the child safety seat from side to side
and try to pull it away from the seat, then
check that the anchors are still securely in
place.
Attaching Upper Tether Straps
If an upper tether strap is provided, attach its
hook to the anchor point located on the back
of the rear seats.
Always position single-strap tethers to run
over the top of the head support. For dual- strap tethers, position a strap on each side of
the head support.
Tighten upper tether straps according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer of
the child safety seat.
Note: To prevent the single-strap tether from
moving side to side, the top of the head
support deforms.
Note: The location of anchor points may not
be readily visible but can be found by
identifying a slice in the seat

integrated 5-point harness for as long as
possible.Warning: Do not use seat belt extenders
on a seat belt that is being used to install
a child safety seat or booster seat.Warning: When seating larger children,
make sure the child
