system anchors which can be used to secure the
child restraint.
The LATCH system anchors are located at the
rear of the seat cushion near the seatback. A
label is attached to the seatback to help you
locate the LATCH system anchors.
Some child restraints may also require the use of
a top tether strap. See “Top tether strap child
restraint” later in this section for installation
instructions.

and follow the instructions in this manual and
those supplied with the child restraint.
When you install a LATCH system compatible

follow these steps.
WARNING
Inspect the lower anchors by inserting
your fingers into the lower anchor area
and feeling to make sure there are no
obstructions over the LATCH system an-
chors, such as seat belt webbing or seat
cushion material. The child restraint will
not be secured properly if the LATCH
system anchors are obstructed.

ible child restraint, insert the child
restraint LATCH system anchor at-
tachments into the anchor points on
the rear. If the child restraint is
equipped with a top tether, see “Top

before placing the child in it, use
force to tilt the child restraint from
side to side and tug it forward to
make sure that the child restraint is
securely held in place. It should not
move more than 1 inch (25 mm).
