SEAT, SEATBELT AND SRS AIRBAGS
Since a tether can provide additional stability by offering another connection between a child restraint system and the vehicle, we recommend that you use a tether whenever one is required or available.

1. Attach the tether strap to the appropriate tether anchorage.

Three tether anchorages are installed on the back side of the rear seatback.
SUBARU recommends that you check with a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician to ensure the proper installation of your child restraint system. For more information, and to locate the closest inspection location in the U. S., refer to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration( NHTSA) website. In Canada, check with Transport Canada.
To hook the tether:
CAUTION
. Remove the head restraint when mounting a child restraint system. Otherwise, it might be possible that the tether anchorage cannot be fastened tightly.
. Store the head restraint that has been removed in the cargo area. Do not place the head restraint in the passenger compartment to prevent it from being thrown around in the passenger compartment in a sudden stop or a sharp turn.
