Locating Tether Anchorages
In addition, there are tether strap anchors located behind each rear seatback, near to the
floor.
Center Seat LATCH
If a child restraint installed in the center position
blocks the seat belt webbing or buckle for the
outboard position, do not use that outboard
position. If a child seat in the center position
blocks the outboard LATCH anchors or seat
belt, do not install a child seat in that outboard
position.
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.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
Except for the center position in the third row, all of the seat belts in the passenger seating
positions are equipped with a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR). The third row
center position is equipped with a cinching latch plate. Both types of seat belts are designed to
keep the lap portion of the seat belt tight around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will
loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
Tether Anchorage Weight Limit
Always use the tether anchor when using the seat belt to install a forward facing child restraint, up
to the recommended weight limit of the child restraint.
