WARNING:
• ATTACH THE VERSA-TETHER ONLY TO TETHER ANCHORS
IDENTIFIED BY YOUR VEHICLE MANUFACTURER AS TETHER
ANCHORAGE POINTS. USE OF OTHER LOCATIONS IS NOT
APPROVED OR PERMITTED.
• THE VERSA-TETHER MUST BE USED AT ALL TIMES. USING
THE TETHER IMPROVES THE STABILITY OF THE RESTRAINT
AND REDUCES THE RISK OF INJURY.
• Use BOTH tether hooks for children heavier than 80 pounds (36
kg). Attach each hook to a separate tether anchor. One tether
anchor is not strong enough for children over 80 pounds.
• If your vehicle does not currently have a tether anchor
attachment, refer to your vehicle owner’s manual or contact
your vehicle manufacturer for assistance.
If a tether anchor is
not available, DO NOT modify your vehicle without advice from
your vehicle manufacturer.
Using the Versa-Tether
1 Locate the teth-
er on the back
of the restraint.
2 Once the
restraint is
secured with
the vehicle belts
or LATCH, lift
the tether
adjuster tab to
release the tether straps, then pull to fully extend tether.
3 Locate the hooks on the strap.
4 Attach tether hook to tether anchor(s) in vehicle (Fig. A-1 OR
Fig. A-2).
• For children less than 80 pounds: hook the tether to an
anchor point using a single hook.
• For children more than 80 pounds: use BOTH tether hooks
and attach each hook to a separate tether anchor (Fig. A).
5 Pull the tether adjuster belt to remove all slack.
6 Verify that there is tension in the tether strap and that the
restraint is properly secured.
