FORD 2014 E-450 v.3 - Manual (Page 32)

The LATCH lower anchors are located at the rear section of the rear seat
between the cushion and seatback.
Follow the child seat manufacturer’s instructions to properly install a
child seat with LATCH attachments. Follow the instructions on attaching
child safety seats with tether straps.
Attach LATCH lower attachments of the child seat only to the anchors
shown.
Each time you use the safety seat, check that the seat is properly
attached to the lower anchors and tether anchor, if applicable. Tug the
child seat from side to side and forward and back where it is secured to
the vehicle. The seat should move less than one inch when you do this
for a proper installation. If the safety seat is not anchored properly, the
risk of a child being injured in a crash greatly increases.
Combining Safety Belt and LATCH Lower Anchors for Attaching
Child Safety Seats
When used in combination, either the safety belt or the LATCH lower
anchors may be attached first, provided a proper installation is achieved.
Attach the tether strap afterward, if included with the child seat.
Using Tether Straps
Many forward-facing child safety seats include a tether strap
which extends from the back of the child safety seat and hooks
to an anchoring point called the top tether anchor. Tether
straps are available as an accessory for many older safety seats.
Contact the manufacturer of your child seat for information about
ordering a tether strap, or to obtain a longer tether strap if the tether
strap on your safety seat does not reach the appropriate top tether
anchor in the vehicle.
