2013 DODGE GRAND CARAVAN fold seats

Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
•
Each vehicle, except commercial cargo vehicles, is equipped with the child restraint anchor-
age system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren.
• Two LATCH child restraint anchorage systems are installed on all second-row seats and in the center position on all third row fold-in-floor seats.
• Second-row seats also feature tether strap anchorages, located in the rear surface of the seatback.
• In addition, all third row fold-in-floor seats are equipped with a child restraint tether anchor at the center seating position.
Installing The Lower Attachments:
• The vehicle lower anchorages are round bars located at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback.
• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the lower child restraint attachment straps to
ease the installation.
NOTE:
It is recommended to loosen the top tether
strap and route it loosely prior to securing
the lower anchors so the top tether strap is
not trapped between the vehicle seat and
child restraint.
• Attach the lower child restraint attach- ment straps to the vehicle’s lower anchor
bars. Ensure that the lower attachment strap is firmly engaged and that the hook is
secure.
• Tighten the lower attachment strap while firmly pushing the child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle seat. Remove all slack in the lower attachment straps.
Installing The Top Tether Strap (With Either Lower Anchors Or Vehicle Seat Belt):
• Route the top tether strap under the adjustable head restraint between the steel posts.
• Provide enough slack for the tether strap to reach the tether anchor located near
the bottom of the seat back.
• Clip tether hook to tether anchor. Ensure that the hook is firmly engaged and se-
cure.
• Remove all slack and tighten tether strap according to child restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions.
NOTE:
The top tether strap is always to be secured,
regardless of if the child restraint is installed with the lower anchors or the vehicle seat belt.

CAUTION!
Do not place any article under a power seat or impede its ability to move as it may cause

an obstruction in the seat’s path.
WARNING!
• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly adjusted,
and you could be severely injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is
parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting
against your chest. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt and be severely
injured or killed. Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.
