3. Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the child restraint to the lower anchorages
in the selected seating position.
4. If the child restraint has a tether strap, connect it to the top tether anchorage. See
the section “Installing Child Restraints Using The Top Tether Anchorage” for
directions to attach a tether anchor.
5. Tighten all of the straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward
into the seat. Remove slack in the straps according to the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions.
6. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the
child seat at the belt path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any
direction.
How To Stow An Unused Switchable-ALR (ALR) Seat Belt:
When using the LATCH attaching system to install a child restraint, stow all ALR seat
belts that are not being used by other occupants or being used to secure child
restraints. An unused belt could injure a child if they play with it and accidentally
lock the seat belt retractor. Before installing a child restraint using the LATCH
system, buckle the seat belt behind the child restraint and out of the child’s reach.
If the buckled seat belt interferes with the child restraint installation, instead of
buckling it behind the child restraint, route the seat belt through the child restraint
belt path and then buckle it. Do not lock the seat belt. Remind all children in the
vehicle that the seat belts are not toys and that they should not play with them.
WARNING!
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to
failure of the restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the
child restraint manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or
child restraint.
• Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed
by correctly-fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attaching other items or equipment to the
vehicle.
