In order to use the LATCH system in your vehicle, you
need a child restraint designed for that system.To assist you in locating the
lower anchors for this child
restraint system, each
seating position with the
LATCH system has a label
on the seatback at each
lower anchor position.
For ve-passenger vehicles, the labels are located
above a ap, at the base of the seatback, in the rear
outside seating positions. The anchors are located under
the ap. In order to get to the anchors you will need
to pull the strap at the center of the seat where the seat
cushion meets the seatback. This will allow you to
fold the seat cushion up and out of the way. Lift the ap
to expose the anchors and then lower the seat
cushion. Be sure the cushion is locked into place.
