Lower Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH)
Your vehicle has the LATCH system. There are anchors
for each rear seating position.
This system, designed to make installation of child
restraints easier, does not use the vehicle’s safety belts.
Instead, it uses vehicle anchors and child restraint
attachments to secure the restraints. Some restraints
also use another vehicle anchor to secure a top
tether strap.
