Securing a Child Restraint Designed
for the LATCH System

1. Find the LATCH anchorages for the seating

position you want to use, where the bottom of the
seatback meets the back of the seat cushion.

2. Put the child restraint on the seat.

3. Attach and tighten the LATCH attachments on the

child restraint to the LATCH anchorages in the
vehicle. The child restraint instructions will show
you how.

4. If the child restraint is forward-facing, attach and

tighten the top tether to the top tether anchorage.
The child restraint instructions will show you
how. Also see

Top Strap on page 1-38.

5. Push and pull the child restraint in different

directions to be sure it is secure.

To remove the child restraint, simply unhook the top
tether from the top tether anchorage and then
disconnect the LATCH attachments from the LATCH
anchorages.

Securing a Child Restraint in a Rear
Seat Position

If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system see

Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers for

Children (LATCH System) on page 1-40. See Top Strap
on page 1-38 if the child restraint has one.

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 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.
