LATCH — Lower Anchors And Tethers For CHildren
•Your vehicle is equipped with the child restraint anchorage system called LATCH, which
stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren.
•All rear seating positions have lower anchors and top tether anchors.
•You may use the LATCH anchorage sys-
tem until the combined weight of the
child and the child restraint is 65 lbs
(29.5 kg).Use the seat belt and tether
anchor instead of the LATCH system
once the combined weight is more than
65 lbs (29.5 kg).
•
The lower anchorages are round
bars that are found at the rear of the
seat cushion where it meets the seat-
back, below the anchorage symbols on
the seatback.They are just visible when
you lean into the rear seat to install the
child restraint.You will easily feel them if
you run your finger along the gap be-
tween the seatback and seat cushion.
•
In addition, there are tether strap
anchorages behind each rear seating position located on the back of the seat.

WARNING!
This vehicle does not have a center seating position.Do not use the center lower
LATCH anchorages to install a child seat in the center of the back seat.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The LATCH Lower Anchors
NOTE:
Never“share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints.
1.Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so
that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages.
2.Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the child restraint to the lower anchorages
in the selected seating position.
3.If the child restraint has a tether strap, connect it to the top tether anchorage.
See below for directions to attach a tether anchor.
4.Tighten all of the straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward into
the seat.Remove slack in the straps according to the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.
5.
Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat
at the belt path.It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any direction.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
The seat belt in the passenger seating position are equipped with a Switchable Automatic
Locking Retractor (ALR) that is designed to keep the lap portion of the seat belt tight
around the child restraint.Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt
occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
Always use the tether anchor when using the seat belt to install a forward facing child
restraint, up to the recommended weight limit of the child restraint.
To Install A Child Seat Using An ALR:
1.Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to pass it through the belt
path of the child restraint.Do not twist the belt webbing in the belt path.
2.Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.”
3.Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight against the child seat.
4.To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder part of the belt until you have pulled
all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor.Then, allow the webbing to retract back
into the retractor.As the webbing retracts, you will hear a clicking sound.This means
the seat belt is now in the Automatic Locking mode.

5.Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor.If it is locked, you should not be able to
pull out any webbing.If the retractor is not locked, repeat the last step.
6.Finally, pull up on any extra webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child re-
straint while you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle
seat.
7.If the child restraint has a top tether strap and the seating position has a top tether
anchorage, connect the tether strap to the anchorage and tighten the tether strap.
See below for directions to attach a tether anchor.
8.Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child
seat at the belt path.It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any direc-
tion.
Installing The Top Tether Strap (With Either Lower Anchors Or Vehicle
Seat Belt):
When installing a forward-facing child restraint, always secure the top tether strap, up to
the tether anchor weight limit, whether the child restraint is installed with the lower an-
chors or the vehicle seat belt.
1.Route the tether strap to provide the most direct path for the strap between the
anchor and the child seat.
2.If your vehicle is equipped with adjustable rear head restraints, raise the head restraint,
and where possible, route the tether strap under the head restraint and between the
two posts.If not possible, lower the head restraint and pass the tether strap around
the outboard side of the head restraint.
3.Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to the top tether anchorage and
remove slack in the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.
