Securing a Child Restraint Designed for the
LATCH System

1. Find the anchors for the seating position you want

to use, where the bottom of the seatback meets the
back of the seat cushion.

2. Put the child restraint on the seat.

3. Attach the anchor points on the child restraint to the

anchors in the vehicle. The child restraint
instructions will show you how.

4. If the child restraint is forward

facing, attach the top

strap to the top strap anchor. See “Top Strap” in the
Index. Tighten the top strap according to the child
restraint instructions.

5. Push and pull the child restraint in different

directions to be sure it is secure.

To remove the child restraint, simply unhook the top
strap from the top tether anchor and then disconnect
the anchor points.

when and as the instructions say.

2. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder

portions of the vehicle’s safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.
