GETTING STARTED Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System • Each vehicle, except commercial cargo vehicles, is equipped with the child restraint anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren. • Two LATCH child restraint anchorage systems are installed on all second-row seats and in the center position on all third row fold-in-floor seats. • Second-row seats also feature tether strap anchorages, located in the rear surface of the seatback. • In addition, all third row fold-in-floor seats are equipped with a child restraint tether anchor at the center seating position. Installing The Lower Attachments: • The vehicle lower anchorages are round bars located at the rear of the seat cushion where it meets the seatback. • Loosen the child seat adjusters on the lower child restraint attachment straps to ease the installation. NOTE: It is recommended to loosen the top tether strap and route it loosely prior to securing the lower anchors so the top tether strap is not trapped between the vehicle seat and child restraint. • Attach the lower child restraint attachment straps to the vehicle's lower anchor bars. Ensure that the lower attachment strap is firmly engaged and that the hook is secure. • Tighten the lower attachment strap while firmly pushing the child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle seat. Remove all slack in the lower attachment straps. Installing The Top Tether Strap (With Either Lower Anchors Or Vehicle Seat Belt): • Route the top tether strap under the adjustable head restraint between the steel posts. • Provide enough slack for the tether strap to reach the tether anchor located near the bottom of the seat back. • Clip tether hook to tether anchor. Ensure that the hook is firmly engaged and secure. • Remove all slack and tighten tether strap according to child restraint manufacturer's instructions. NOTE: The top tether strap is always to be secured, regardless of if the child restraint is installed with the lower anchors or the vehicle seat belt. 12
