FORWARD-FACING CHILD
RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING
LATCH

Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” in this section be-
fore installing a child restraint.

NISSAN does not recommend the use of the
lower anchors if the combined weight of the child
and the child restraint exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg). If
the combined weight of the child and the child
restraint is greater than 65 lbs, (29.5 kg) use the
vehicle’s seat belt (not the lower anchors) to
install the child restraint. Be sure to follow the
child restraint manufacturer’s instructions for in-
stallation.

Follow these steps to install a forward-facing
child restraint using the LATCH system.

1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always

follow the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.

2. Secure the child restraint anchor attachments

to the LATCH lower anchors. Check to make
sure that the LATCH attachment is properly
attached to the lower anchors.

If the child restraint is equipped with a top
tether strap, route the top tether strap and
secure the tether strap to the tether anchor
point. See “Installing top tether strap” in this
section. Do not install child restraints that re-
quire the use of a top tether strap in seating
positions that do not have a top tether anchor.
