LATCH anchors have been provided
in your vehicle. The LATCH anchors
are located in the left and right out-
board rear seating positions. Their
locations are shown in the illustra-
tion. There is no LATCH anchor pro-
vided for the center rear seating
position.
The LATCH anchors are located
between the seatback and the seat
cushion of the 2nd row seat left and
right outboard seating positions.
Follow the child seat manufacturer’s
instructions to properly install child
restraint seats with LATCH or
LATCH-compatible attachments.

Once you have installed the LATCH
child restraint, assure that the seat is
properly attached to the LATCH and
tether anchors.
Also, test the child restraint 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.

WARNING

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

WARNING -

LATCH lower
anchors

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

CAUTION

Do not allow the rear seat belt
webbing to get scratched or
pinched by the child-seat latch
and LATCH anchor during the
installation.
