Attaching child safety seats with Lower Anchor and Tethers for
Children (LATCH) attachments for child seat anchors

Some child safety seats are labeled as LATCH or LATCH-compatible child
seats. These seats include two rigid or webbing mounted attachments
that connect to two anchors at specific seating positions in your vehicle.
This type of child seat eliminates the need to use seat belts to attach the
child seat. For forward-facing child seats, the tether strap must also be
attached to the proper tether anchor point. For information on using
tether straps with the child safety seats, refer to Passenger front and
side air bag ON/OFF switch
and Attaching child safety seats with
tether straps
in this chapter.
