The LATCH system is composed of three vehicle anchor points: two
lower anchors located where your vehicle seatback and seat cushion
meet (called the seat bight) and one top tether anchor located behind
that seating position.
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.
Follow the instructions on attaching child safety seats with tether straps.
See Using Tether Straps in this chapter.
Attach LATCH lower attachments of the child seat only to the anchors
shown.
