CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION

USING LATCH

WARNING

Attach LATCH compatible child re-

straints only at the locations shown. For

the LATCH lower anchor locations, see

“Lower Anchors and Tethers for Chil-

dren System (LATCH)” in this section. If

a child restraint is not secured properly,

your child could be seriously injured or

killed in an accident.

The LATCH anchors are designed to

withstand only those loads imposed by

correctly fitted child restraints. Under

no circumstance are they to be used for

adult seat belts or harnesses.

Inspect the lower anchors by inserting

your fingers into the lower anchor area

and feeling to make sure there are no

obstructions over the LATCH anchors,

such as seat belt webbing or seat cush-

ion material. The child restraint will not

be secured properly if the LATCH an-

chors are obstructed.

Front-facing

Follow these steps to install a front-facing child

restraint using LATCH:

1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Al-

ways follow the child restraint manufactur-

er’s instructions.
