LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers

for CHildren) SYSTEM

The LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for

CHildren) anchor points are located in the seat

cushions of the rear outboard seating positions

only. Do not attempt to install a child restraint in

the center position using the LATCH anchors.
The LATCH system anchors are located at the

rear of the seat cushion near the seatback. A

label is attached to the seatback to help you

locate the LATCH system anchors.

WARNING

Attach LATCH system compatible child

restraints only at the locations shown. If

a child restraint is not secured properly,

your child could be seriously injured or

killed in an accident.

Do not secure a child restraint in the

center rear seating position using the

LATCH system anchors. The child re-

straint will not be secured properly.

The LATCH system anchors are de-

signed to withstand only those loads

imposed by correctly fitted child re-

straints. Under no circumstance are

they to be used for adult seat belts or

harnesses.

Some child restraints include two rigid or

webbing-mounted attachments that can be con-

nected to two anchors located at certain seating

positions in your vehicle. This system is known as

the LATCH system. This system may also be

referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX compatible

system. With this system, you do not have to use

a vehicle seat belt to secure the child restraint.

Your vehicle is equipped with special anchor

points that are used with LATCH system compat-

ible child restraints. Check your child restraint for

a label stating that it is compatible with the
