FORD 2013 Transit Connect v.2 - Manual (Page 28)

The LATCH system is composed of three vehicle anchor points: two
lower anchors located where the vehicle seat back and seat cushion meet
(called the seat bight) and one top tether anchor located behind that
seating position.
LATCH compatible child safety seats have two rigid or webbing mounted
attachments that connect to the two lower anchors at the LATCH
equipped seating positions in your vehicle. This type of attachment
method eliminates the need to use safety belts to attach the child seat,
however the safety belt can still be used to attach the child seat. For
forward-facing child seats, the top tether strap must also be attached to
the proper top tether anchor, if a top tether strap has been provided
with your child seat.
Your vehicle has LATCH lower anchors for child seat installation at the
seating positions marked with the child seat symbol.
• Taxi version
• All others
The LATCH lower anchors are
located at the rear section of the
rear seat between the cushion and
seatback, below the locator symbols
on the seat back. Follow the child
seat manufacturer’s instructions to
properly install a child seat with
LATCH attachments.
