Lower anchorages secure the chi ld restraint in
the seat without using the vehicle 's safety
belts. Anchorages provide a secure and easy-
to -use attachment and minimize the possib ili-
ty of improper child restraint installation .
All child restraints manufactured after Sep-
tember 1, 2002, must have lower anchorage
attachments
for the LATCH system .
Please remember that the lower anchorage
po ints are only intended for installat ion and
attachment of child restraints spec ifically cer-
tified for use with LATCH lower anchorages .
Child restraints that are not equipped with the
lower anchorage attachments can still be in-
sta lled in compliance with th e child restra int
manufactu rer's instr uct ions on using veh icle
safety belts.
