There are tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located on the

back of the seat. To access them, pull the carpeted floor panel away from the seat back,
this will expose the top tether strap anchorages. DO NOT USE the cargo tie down loops
located on the load floor as tether anchorages.

WARNING!

Do not install a child restraint in the center position using the LATCH system. This
position is not approved for installing child seats using the LATCH attachments. You
must use the seat belt and tether anchor to install a child seat in the center seating
position.

Vehicles With Center Arm Rest Tether

• For rearward facing infant seats secured in the center seat position with the vehicle seat

belts, the rear center seat position has an armrest tether that secures the arm rest in the
upward position.

1. To access the center seat arm rest tether, first lower the arm rest. The tether is located

behind the armrest and hooked onto the plastic seat backing.

2. Pull down on the tether to unhook it from the plastic seat backing.

3. Raise the armrest and attach the tether hook to the strap located on the front of the arm

rest.

Installing The Child Restraint Using The LATCH Lower Anchors

NOTE:
Never
“share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints.

1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so that

you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages.

2. Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the child restraint to the lower anchorages in the

selected seating position.
