Securing a Child Restraint in a
Center Rear Seat Position
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, see Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers
for Children (LATCH System) on page 1-40 . See
Top Strap on page 1-38 if the child restraint has one.
If your child restraint does not have the LATCH system,
you will be using the lap belt to secure the child
restraint. Be sure to follow the instructions that came
with the child restraint. Secure the child in the child
restraint when and as the instructions say. See
Top Strap on page 1-38 if the child restraint has one.

1. Make the belt as long as possible by tilting the latch

you how.
