With Latch - Honda Ridgeline 2006 Online Reference Owner's Manual

Installing a Child Seat with
LATCH
Your vehicle is equipped with
LATCH (Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children) at each rear
seating position.
The lower anchors are located
between the seat-back and seat
bottom, and are to be used only with
a child seat designed for use with
LATCH.
The location of each lower anchor is
indicated by a small button above the
anchor point.
Whenever using the center tether
anchor point, make sure to push
down the head restraint to the lowest
position, route the strap over the
seat-back, then around the upper
guide before attaching the tether
strap hook to the center tether
anchor (see page 44 ).
BUTTON
To install a LATCH-compatible child
seat:
1. If needed, move the seat belt
buckle or tongue away from the
lower anchors.
2. Make sure there are no objects
near the anchors that could
prevent a secure connection
between the child seat and the
anchors.

When using the tether strap on
the child seat, attach the tether
strap hook to the center tether

seat to the lower anchors for the

behind the child seat.
