Safety features of your vehicle LATCH anchors have been provided in your vehicle. The LATCH anchors are located in the left and right outboard rear seating positions. Their locations are shown in the illustration. There is no LATCH anchor provided for the center rear seating position. The LATCH anchors are located between the seatback and the seat cushion of the rear seat left and right outboard seating positions. Follow the child seat manufacturer's instructions to properly install child restraint seats with LATCH or LATCHcompatible attachments. Once you have installed the LATCH child restraint, assure that the seat is properly attached to the LATCH and tether anchors. Also, test the child restraint seat before you place the child in it. Tilt the seat from side to side. Also try to tug the seat forward. Check to see if the anchors hold the seat in place. CAUTION Do not allow the rear seat belt webbing to get scratched or pinched by the child-seat latch and LATCH anchor during the installation. WARNING If the child restraint is not anchored properly, the risk of a child being seriously injured or killed in a collision greatly increases. WARNING - LATCH lower anchors LATCH lower anchors are only to be used with the left and right rear outboard seating positions. Never attempt to attach a LATCH equipped seat in the center seating position. You may damage the anchors or the anchors may fail and break in a collision. 3 29
