in the vehicle consists of two lower anchors
located at the vehicle seat bight
and a top tether
anchor
(fig. d)
. Refer to vehicle owner’s
manual for seating locations which have the
LATCH Anchorage System. Information regarding
the LATCH system may be identified by the LATCH
System symbol
(fig. e)

Lower anchors may not be visible in some vehicles.
Lower anchors that are not visible are located below
a solid color round dot on the vehicle upholstery or a
round dot with a picture of a car seat in the center as
shown in

The vehicle manufacturer may provide funnel guides
to separate the vehicle seat cushions providing easier
access to the lower anchorage. See vehicle owner’s
manual.
