Securing the Child Restraint Seat with
the "Child Seat Lower Anchor" sys-
tem
Some child seat manufacturers make safety
seats that are labeled as LATCH or LATCH-
compatible child seats. LATCH stands for
"Lower anchors and Tethers for Children".
These seats include two rigid or webbing
mounted attachments that connect to two
LATCH anchors at specific seating posi-
tions in your vehicle. This type of child seat
eliminates the need to use seat belts to
attach the child seat in the rear seats.
LATCH anchors have been provided in
your vehicle. The LATCH anchors are lo-
cated in the left and right outboard rear
seating positions.
Their locations are shown in the illustra-
tion. There is no LATCH anchor provided
for the center rear seating position.
!
WARNING:
o A child can be seriously injured or
killed in a collision if the child restraint
is not properly anchored. Always
follow the child seat manufacturer's
instructions for installation and use.
o Never install a child restraint using
the LATCH lower anchors at the cen-
ter position of the rear seat. In a crash,
the LATCH lower anchors may break
if a car seat is improperly placed in the
B230D01NF
center position resulting in serious or
fatal injuries. Only place a LATCH or
LATCH-compatible child seat in the
left or right out-board rear seating
positions (as shown) to the appropri-
ate LATCH anchors provided.

WARNING:
o Never mount more than one child re-
straint to a single tether or to a single
lower anchorage point. The increased
load caused by multiple seats may
cause the tethers or anchorage points
to break, causing serious injury or
death.
o When using the vehicle's "LATCH"
system to install a child restraint sys-
tem in the rear seat, all unused ve-
hicle rear seat belt metal latch plates
or tabs must be latched securely in
their seat belt buckles and the seat
belt webbing must be retracted be-
hind the child restraint to prevent the
child from reaching and taking hold of
unretracted seat belts. Unlatched
metal latch plates or tabs may allow
the child to reach the unretracted seat
belts which may result in strangula-
tion and a serious injury or death to
the child in the child restraint.
