Locating The Upper Tether Anchorages
There are tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located in the
panel between the rear seatback and the rear window. They are found under a plastic cover
with the tether anchorage symbol on it.
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
connector 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
If a child restraint installed in the center position blocks the seat belt webbing or buckle
for the outboard position, do not use that outboard position. If a child seat in the center
position blocks the outboard LATCH anchors or seat belt, do not install a child seat in that
outboard position.
Never use the same lower anchorage to attach more than one child restraint. Please
refer to "Installing The LATCH-Compatible Child Restraint System" for typical instal-
lation instructions.
Always follow the directions of the child restraint manufacturer when installing your child
restraint. Not all child restraint systems will be installed as described here.
To Install A LATCH-Compatible Child Restraint
If the selected seating position has a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) seat
belt, stow the seat belt, following the instructions below. See the section "Installing Child
Restraints Using The Vehicle Seat Belt" to check what type of seat belt each seating
position has.
1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so that
you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages.
2. Place the child seat between the lower anchorages for that seating position. For some
second row seats, you may need to recline the seat and / or raise the head restraint to
