Child Seat Restraint-Tether Attachment

Some manufacturers make safety seats with a tether strap that goes over the back of the vehicle seat and attaches to an anchoring point behind the vehicle seat.

Ford recommends the placement of tethered safety seats in a rear seating position with the tether strap attached to the tether anchoring point. The right front seating position may be used if it is the only seating position available.
