The lower anchors are located between
the seatback and the seat cushion of the
2nd rear seat left and right outboard seat-
ing positions.

Follow the child seat manufacturer's in-
structions to properly install safety seats
with LATCH or LATCH-compatible attach-
ments.

Once you have installed the LATCH child
restraint seat, assure that the seat is prop-
erly attached to the lower and tether an-
chors. Also, test the safety seat before you
place the child in it. Tilt the seat from side
to side. Also try to tug the seat forward.
Check to see if the anchors hold the seat
in place.

!

o Never mount more than one child re-

straint to a single tether or to a single
lower anchorage point. The increased
load caused by multiple seats may
cause the tethers or anchorage points
to break, causing serious injury or
death.

o When using the vehicle’s “LATCH”

system to install a child restraint sys-
tem in the rear seat, all unused ve-
hicle rear seat belt metal latch plates
or tabs must be latched securely in
their seat belt buckles and the seat
belt webbing must be retracted be-
hind the child restraint to prevent the
child from reaching and taking hold of
unretracted seat belts. Unlatched
metal latch plates or tabs may allow
the child to reach the unretracted seat
belts which may result in strangula-
tion and a serious injury or death to
the child in the child restraint.
