LATCH – Lower Anchors And Tethers For CHildren

Your vehicle is equipped with the child
restraint anchorage system called LATCH,
which stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers
for CHildren.

The rear outboard seating positions have
lower anchors and top tether anchors. The
rear center seating position has a top tether
anchor only.

LATCH Weight Limit

You may use the LATCH anchorage system
until the combined weight of the child and
the child restraint is 65 lbs (29.5 kg). Use
the seat belt and tether anchor instead of
the LATCH system once the combined
weight is more than 65 lbs (29.5 kg).

Locating LATCH Anchorages

The lower anchorages are round bars that are found at the rear of the seat cushion

where it meets the seatback, below the anchorage symbols on the seatback. They are just
visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint. You will easily feel
them if you run your finger along the gap between the seatback and seat cushion.

Locating Tether Anchorages

In addition, there are tether strap an-

chorages behind each rear seating position
located in the panel between the rear seat-
back and the rear window. These tether
strap anchorages are under a plastic cover
with the tether anchorage symbol on it.

Center Seat LATCH

Do not install child restraints with rigid
lower attachments in the center seating
position. Only install this type of child re-
straint in the outboard seating positions.
Child restraints with flexible, webbing
mounted lower attachments can be in-
stalled in any rear seating position. In the
center position, the inner anchorages are
17 inches (440 mm) apart.
