Lower Anchors And Tethers For CHildren (LATCH) Restraint System
Your vehicle is equipped with the child re-
straint anchorage system called LATCH,
which stands for Lower Anchors and Teth-
ers for CHildren
.
The LATCH system has
three vehicle anchor points for installing
LATCH-equipped child seats
. There are two
lower anchorages located at the back of
the seat cushion where it meets the seat-
back and one top tether anchorage located
behind the seating position
.
These anchor-
ages are used to install LATCH-equipped child seats without using the vehicle’s seat belts
.
Some seating positions may have a top tether anchorage but no lower anchorages . In
these seating positions, the seat belt must be used with the top tether anchorage to in-
stall the child restraint
.
Please see the following table for more information
.
