Securing a Child Restraint in a
Rear Seat Position

If your child restraint has the LATCH system, see
Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH)
on page 56.

If your child restraint does not have the LATCH
system, you will be using the lap-shoulder belt to
secure the child restraint in this position. Be sure to
follow the instructions that came with the child
restraint. Secure the child in the child restraint when
and as the instructions say.

1. Put the child restraint on the seat.

2. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and

shoulder portions of the vehicle’s safety belt
through or around the restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show you how.
