Using LATCH

LOWER ANCHORS
Your car is equipped with LATCH
(Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children) at the rear seats. The
lower anchors are located between
the seat-back and seat bottom.
The exact location of each lower
anchor is marked with a small
button above the lower anchor point.
Lower anchors are to be used only
with a child seat designed for use
with LATCH.

or booster cushions indicates the presence
of LATCH compatible hardware.
To install a LATCH-compatible child
seat:
1. Move the seat belt buckle or seat
belt tongue away from the lower
anchors.
2. Make sure there are no foreign
objects around the anchors.
Foreign objects could get in the

between the child seat and the
anchors.
