2006 Dodge Magnum Owner Manual SRT8 - Page 53

THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 53 rear-seating positions or if your child restraints are not LATCH-compatible, install the restraints using the vehicle's seat belts. The rear seat lower anchorages are round bars, located at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seat back, and are just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint. You will easily feel them if you run your finger along the intersection of the seatback and seat cushion surfaces. The rear seat lower anchorage bars are identified by this symbol. 2 In addition, there are tether strap anchorages located behind each rear seat back. Many, but not all restraint systems will be equipped with separate straps on each side, with each having a hook or connector for attachment to the lower anchorage and a means of adjusting the tension in the strap. Forwardfacing toddler restraints and some rear-facing infant restraints will also be equipped with a tether strap, a hook for attachment to the tether strap anchorage and a means of adjusting the tension of the strap. LATCH Anchorages Installing the LATCH-Compatible Child Restraint System We urge that you carefully follow the directions of the manufacturer when installing your child restraint. Not all child restraint systems will be installed as described here. Again, carefully follow the installation instructions that were provided with the child restraint system.
