Child Restraint Systems
6. If your child restraint system is of a
flexible attachment type (which uses tether
belts to connect the child restraint system
properly to the lower anchorages). While
pushing the child restraint into the seat
cushion, pull both left and right lower tether
belts up to secure the child restraint
system firmly by taking up the slack in
the belt.
7. Latch the top tether hook onto the
tether anchorage that is located on the rear
shelf (Legacy)/behind the rear seat
(Outback) and tighten the top tether firmly.
For additional instructions, refer to “Top
Tether Anchorages” ☞P72.
8. Before seating a child in the child
restraint system, try to move it back and
forth and left and right to verify that it is
firmly secured in the center of the seat.
9. To remove the child restraint system,
follow the reverse procedures of installation.
If you have any question concerning this
type of child restraint system, ask your
SUBARU dealer.
& Top Tether Anchorages
s01ag09
Your vehicle is equipped with three top
tether anchorages so that a child restraint
system having a top tether can be installed
in the rear seat. When installing a child
restraint system using top tether, proceed
as follows, while observing the instructions
by the child restraint system manufacturer.
Since a top tether can provide additional
stability by offering another connection
between a child restraint system and the
vehicle, we recommend that you use a top
tether whenever one is required or available.
