Subaru Forester: Top tether anchorages - Child restraint systems - Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags - Subaru Forester Owner's ManualSubaru Forester: Top tether anchorages

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.
