CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH
WARNING
● Attach LATCH system compatible child
restraints only at the locations shown.
For the LATCH lower anchor locations
see “LATCH (Latch Anchors and Tethers
for CHildren) system”. If a child restraint
is not secured properly, your child could
be seriously injured or killed in an
accident.
● The LATCH anchors are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under
no circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts or harnesses.
● Inspect the lower anchors by inserting
your fingers into the lower anchor area
and feeling to make sure there are no
obstructions over the LATCH anchors,
such as seat belt webbing or seat cush-
ion material. The child restraint will not
be secured properly if the LATCH an-
chors are obstructed.
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using LATCH:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Al-
ways follow the child restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions.
2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-
ments to the LATCH lower anchors. Check
to make sure the LATCH attachment is prop-
erly attached to the lower anchors.
3. The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head restraint
to obtain the correct child restraint fit. See “Head
restraint adjustment” earlier in this section.
If the head restraint is removed, store it in a
secure place. Be sure to reinstall the head re-
straint when the child restraint is removed.
