Locating The LATCH Anchorages
The lower anchorages are round
bars that are found at the rear of
the seat cushion where it meets the
seatback, below the anchorage
symbols on the seatback. They are
just visible when you lean into the
rear seat to install the child restraint. You will
easily feel them if you run your finger along the
gap between the seatback and seat cushion.
Locating The Tether Anchorages
There are tether strap anchorages
behind each rear seating position
located on the back of the seat. To
access them, pull the carpeted
floor panel away from the seat
back, this will expose the top tether
strap anchorages.

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 connec-
tor 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
WARNING!
• Do not install a child restraint in the center
position using the LATCH system. This
position is not approved for installing child
seats using the LATCH attachments. You
must use the seat belt and tether anchor to
install a child seat in the center seating
position.
