Frequently Asked Questions About Installing Child Restraints With LATCH
Can two child restraints be at-
tached using a common lower
LATCH anchorage?
No
Never “share” a LATCH anchor-
age with two or more child re-
straints

If the center position
does not have dedicated LATCH
lower anchorages, use the seat
belt to install a child seat in the
center position next to a child
seat using the LATCH anchorages
in an outboard position
.
Can the rear-facing child restraint
touch the back of the front pas-
senger seat?
Yes
The child seat may touch the
back of the front passenger seat
if the child restraint manufacturer
also allows contact
.
See your child
restraint owner’s manual for
more information
.
Can the head restraints be re-
moved?
Yes
All may be removed
.
Locating The LATCH Anchorages
The lower anchorages are round bars that are found at the rear of the seat cushion
where it meets the seatback
.
They are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to
install the child restraint
.
You will easily feel them if you run your finger along the gap
between the seatback and seat cushion
.
