Seating and Safety Restraints
LATCH compatible child safety seats have two rigid or webbing mounted
attachments that connect to the two lower anchors at the LATCH
equipped seating positions in your vehicle. This type of attachment
method eliminates the need to use safety belts to attach the child seat,
however the safety belt can still be used to attach the child seat. For
forward-facing child seats, the top tether strap must also be attached to
the proper top tether anchor, if a top tether strap has been provided
with your child seat.See Attaching child safety seats with tether straps
and Recommendations for attaching safety restraints for children in
this chapter for more information.
Your vehicle has LATCH lower anchors for child seat installation at the
following seating positions. In addition, six passenger and seven
passenger LATCH lower anchor positions are marked with the child seat
symbol.
• 5 passenger vehicle
• 6 passenger vehicle
• 7 passenger vehicle
