with top tether anchors. There is one top tether anchor that can be used for either
the third row center or driver side seating position but not both at the same time.
For models with a third row seat, see the information following for installing a child restraint with a top tether in the third row. Never install two top tethers using the same top tether anchor.
To assist in locating the top tether anchors, the top tether anchor symbol appears near the anchors.
