Child seat anchors – LATCH type

This vehicle is equipped with two LATCH
(Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren)
type anchors (at each of the outer rear
seats) for the installation of a LATCH child
seat with matching mounting fittings.

Children too big for a toddler restraint must

ride in seats using regular seat belts. Posi-

tion shoulder belt across chest and shoul-

der, not face or neck. A booster seat may be

necessary to achieve proper belt positioning

for children from 41 lb until they reach a

height where a lap/shoulder belt fits

properly without a booster.

When the child restraint is not in use,

remove it from the vehicle or secure it with

the seat belt to prevent the child restraint

from becoming a projectile in the event of an

accident.

Do not leave children unattended in the

vehicle, even if the children are secured in a

child restraint system.

A child’s unsupervised access to a vehicle

could result in an accident and/or serious

personal injury.
