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.
Locating The Tether Anchorages
There are tether strap anchorages
behind each rear seating position
located on the back of the seat.
LATCH-compatible child restraint systems will
be equipped with a rigid bar or a flexible strap
on each side. Each will have a hook or connec-
tor to attach to the lower anchorage and a way
to tighten the connection to the anchorage.
Forward-facing child restraints and some rear-
facing child restraints will also be equipped with
a tether strap. The tether strap will have a hook
at the end to attach to the top tether anchorage
and a way to tighten the strap after it is attached
to the anchorage.
Center Seat LATCH
This vehicle has 5 lower LATCH anchorages in
the rear seat. Anchorages A and B are used for
the right outboard position behind the front
passenger (1). Anchorages D and E are used
for the left outboard position behind the driver
(3). Anchorages C and D are used for the center
seating position (2). Do not install a LATCH—
compatible child restraint using anchorages B
and C. This is not a LATCH—compatible posi-
tion in your vehicle
You can install up to two child seats using the
LATCH system at the same time. If you can fit
three child restraints in your vehicle, you must
use the seatbelt to install the center child re-
straint and you must use the LATCH anchors for
position (3) behind the driver. You can use
either the LATCH anchors or the vehicle’s seat
belt for installing the third child seat in position
(1) behind the front passenger.
