Dodge 2014 Journey - User Guide - Manual (Page 19)

• The center seating position in this vehicle has a single dedicated anchorage. Use
anchorages B and C to install a child seat in the center position. Do not use anchorages
C and D to install a child seat. If you are installing three child restraints, you must use the
seatbelt to install the center child restraint. You can use either the LATCH anchors or the
vehicle’s seat belt for installing the child seats in the outboard positions. See the vehicle
owner’s manual for more information about center LATCH.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The LATCH Lower Anchors
NOTE:
Never “share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints.
1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so that
you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages.
2. Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the child restraint to the lower anchorages in the
selected seating position.
3. If the child restraint has a tether strap, connect it to the top tether anchorage. See below
for directions to attach a tether anchor.
4. Tighten all of the straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the seat.
Remove slack in the straps according to the child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat
at the belt path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any direction.
