Securing Top Tether
WARNING Risk of injury or death if the rear seat backrests are not locked after Top Tether belts are fitted

The rear seat backrests may fold forwards when you are driving.

As a result, child restraint systems will no longer be able to perform their intended protective function. This may also cause additional injuries.

Always lock rear seat backrests after fitting Top Tether belts.
Observe the lock verification indicator.

If the left and right seat backrests are not engaged and locked in place, this will be shown on the multifunction display on the instrument cluster.

If the child restraint system is equipped with a Top Tether belt:

The risk of injury may be reduced by Top Tether. The Top Tether belt enables an additional connection between the child restraint system attached with ISOFIX or i‑Size and the vehicle.

Place the ISOFIX or i‑Size child restraint system with Top Tether on the rear seat. It is essential to comply with the child restraint system manufacturer's installation instructions.
Fold the rear seat backrest forward.
Attach Top Tether hook to Top Tether anchorage .
Fold the rear seat backrest back.
Make sure that Top Tether belt is not twisted and the rear seat backrest is locked in place.
Secure the child restraint system with ISOFIX or i‑Size.
Tension Top Tether belt from the boot.
Make sure that there is sufficient seat belt strap for pulling tight.
It is essential to comply with the child restraint system manufacturer's installation instructions.
