WARNING -

LATCH
Anchors

If the child restraint is not anchored
properly, the risk of a child being
seriously injured or killed in a colli-
sion greatly increases.

WARNING

When using the vehicle’s “LATCH”
system to install a child restraint
system in the rear seat, all unused
vehicle 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 behind 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 strangulation and a
serious injury or death to the child
in the child restraint.

WARNING -

LATCH lower
anchors

LATCH lower anchors are only to be
used with the left and right rear out-
board seating positions. Never
attempt to attach an LATCH
equipped seat in the center seating
position. You may damage the
anchors or the anchors may fail and
break in a collision.
