in both outboard positions, both
top tethers can be attached to
the center loop. Top tethers
can be attached for child
restraints in all three rear
seating positions at the same
time, following the routing
instructions above.

child restraint, make sure it is
securely held in place. To
check, grasp the child restraint
at the LATCH path and attempt
to move it side to side and
back and forth. There should
be no more than 2.5 cm (1 in)
of movement for proper
installation.
