Tesla Model 3: Attaching Upper Tether Straps
If an upper tether strap is provided, attach its
hook to the anchor point located on the shelf
behind the rear seats.
Note: The location of anchor points may not
be readily visible but can be found by
identifying a slice in the seat's material.
Warning: Tighten upper tether straps
according to the instructions provided by
the manufacturer of the child safety seat.
Warning: USE ONLY SEAT BELT
RETAINED CHILD SAFETY SEATS IN THE
CENTER SEATING POSITION.
To access an anchor point, press down on the
back of its cover.
For dual-strap tethers, position a strap on
each side of the head support.
For single-strap tethers at the outboard
seating positions, run the strap over the
outside-facing side of the head support (same
side of the head support as the seat belt
retraction mechanism).
For a single-strap tether in the center seating
position, fully lower the head support and run the strap over
the top center of the head support.
Testing a Child Safety Seat
Before seating a child, always make sure the
child safety seat is not loose:
- Hold the child safety seat by the belt path
and try to slide the safety seat from side
to side and front to back.
- If the seat moves more than one inch
(2.5 cm), it is too loose. Tighten the belt or
reconnect the LATCH retained child safety
seat.
- If you are unable to reduce slack, try a
different seat location or try another child
safety seat.
