LATCH child restraint fixing
system
LATCH: Lower Anchor and Tethers for CHil-
dren.
Follow the system manufacturer's
instructions on installation and use of
LATCH child restraint systems; otherwise, their
protective function may be reduced.

Before attaching the child's seat, pull the belt
away from the region of the child restraint fixing
system.
Before installing the child's seat, remove
the covers
* from the mounts for the
LATCH anchor fittings, as otherwise the
LATCH anchor fittings have no restraining
effect.

Make sure that the LATCH mounts have
properly clicked into place and that the
child restraint system is resting snugly against
the backrest. Otherwise, the protective action
may be reduced.

The anchor points for the LATCH anchors are
located at the positions indicated by arrows in
the gap between the seat and the backrest.
Child restraint system with tether strap
Only use the top tether mounting points
to secure child restraint systems, other-
wise the mounting points could be damaged.
Do not mount child restraint systems on the
3rd row seats, as otherwise the protection pro-
vided by these child restraint systems may be
reduced.
<
There are three additional mounting points for
child restraint systems with a tether strap on the
2nd row seats, refer to arrows. Fold out before
using the center mounting point.
