After the child restraint is removed and the
seat belt is fully retracted, the automatic
locking mode (child restraint mode) is can-
celed.
WARNING
OAttach LATCH system compatible
child restraints only at the locations
shown. If a child restraint is not se-
cured properly, your child could be
seriously injured or killed in an acci-
dent.
ODo not secure a child restraint in the
center rear seating position using
the LATCH system anchors. The
child restraint will not be secured
properly.OThe LATCH system anchors are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstance are
they to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses.
Some child restraints include two rigid or
webbing-mounted attachments that can be
connected to two anchors located at certain
seating positions in your vehicle. This sys-
tem is known as the LATCH (Lower Anchors
and Tether for Children) system. This sys-
tem may also be referred to as the ISOFIX
or ISOFIX compatible system. With this
system, you do not have to use a vehicle
seat belt to secure the child restraint. Your
vehicle is equipped with special anchor
points that are used with LATCH system
compatible child restraints. Check your child
restraint for a label stating that it is compat-
ible with the LATCH system. This informa-
tion may also be in the child restraint own-
er's manual. If you have such a child
restraint, refer to the illustration for the rear
seating positions equipped with LATCH sys-
tem anchors which can be used to secure
the child restraint.
