To hook the top tether
1. Remove the head restraint at the window-side seating position where the child restraint system has been installed with the lower anchorages or seatbelt; lift up the head restraint while pressing the release button. Store the head restraint in the trunk (4-door) or cargo area (5-door).
Avoid placing 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.
