Frequently Asked Questions About Installing Child Restraints With LATCH
What is the weight limit (child's weight +
weight of the child restraint) for using the
LATCH anchorage system to attach the child
restraint?
Can the LATCH anchorages and the seat belt
be used together to attach a rear-facing or
forward-facing child restraint?
Can a child seat be installed in the center
position using the inner LATCH lower
anchorage?
65 lbs
Use the LATCH anchorage system until the
(29.5 kg)
combined weight of the child and the child
restraint is 65 lbs (29.5 kg). Use the seat belt
and tether anchor instead of the LATCH an-
chorage system once the combined weight is
more than 65 lbs (29.5 kg).
No
Do not use the seat belt when you use the
LATCH anchorage system to attach a rear-
facing or forward-facing child restraint.
Yes
You can install child restraints with flexible
lower anchors in the center position. The in-
ner anchorages are 15.7 inches (400 mm)
apart. Do not install child restraints with rigid
lower anchors in the center position.
