Your vehicle has LATCH anchors for child seat installation at the seating
positions marked with the child seat symbol.

The anchors on both sides of the
center of the rear seat are provided
for child seats at the outboard seats,
and are further apart than the pairs
of lower anchors for child seat
installation at other seats. DO NOT
install child seats with LATCH
attachments (rigid or mounted on
belt webbing) to the lower anchors
at the center rear seat. If you install a child seat at the center rear
position, use the vehicle belt and the top tether anchor.

Never attach two LATCH child safety seats to the same anchor. In
a crash, one anchor may not be strong enough to hold two child

safety seat attachments and may break, causing serious injury or death.

Follow the child seat manufacturer’s
instructions to properly install a
child seat with LATCH attachments.

Attach LATCH lower
attachments of the child

seat only to the anchors shown.

If you install a child seat with rigid
LATCH attachments, do not tighten
the tether strap enough to lift the
child seat off the vehicle seat cushion when the child is seated in it.
Keep the tether strap just snug without lifting the front of the child seat.
Keeping the child seat just touching the vehicle seat gives the best
protection in a severe crash.
Each time you use the safety seat, check that the seat is properly
attached to the lower anchors and tether anchor. Try to tilt the child
seat from side to side. Also try to tug the seat forward. Check to see if
the anchors hold the seat in place.

If the safety seat is not anchored properly, the risk of a child
being injured in a crash greatly increases.
