attachments to the lower
anchors. If the child restraint
does not have lower
attachments or the desired
seating position does not have
lower anchors, secure the child
restraint with the the safety belts

recommended by the child
restraint manufacturer. Refer to
your child restraint manufacturer
instructions and the instructions
in this manual. For the third row
outboard seating positions, if the
head restraint interferes with the
proper installation of the child
restraint, then the head restraint
may be removed. See “HeadRestraint Removal and
Reinstallation under
Lower
Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on
page 3-51.

position.
1.2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
1.3. Attach and tighten the lower attachments on the child
restraint to the lower

2. If the child restraint manufacturer recommends that the top tether
be attached, attach and tighten
the top tether to the top tether
anchor. Refer to the child
restraint instructions and the
following steps:
2.1. Find the top tether anchor.
For models with a third row
