RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH
For additional information, refer to all Warn-
ings and Cautions in the "Child safety" and
"Child restraints" before installing a child re-
straint. Do not use the lower anchors if the
combined weight of the child and the child
restraint exceeds 65 lb (29.5 kg). If the com-
bined weight of the child and the child re-
straint is greater than 65 lb (29.5 kg), use the
vehicle seat belt (not the lower anchors) to
install the child restraint. Be sure to follow the
child restraint manufacturer's instructions for
installation. Follow these steps to install a
rear-facing child restraint in the 2nd row
seats using the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat.

3. For child restraints that are equipped with
webbing-mounted attachments, remove
any additional slack from the anchor at-
tachments. Press downward and rear-
ward firmly in the center of the child re-
straint with your hand to compress the
vehicle seat cushion and seatback while

tachments.4. After attaching the child restraint, test it
before you place the child in it. Push it
from side to side while holding the child
restraint near the LATCH attachment
path. The child restraint should not move
more than 1 inch (25 mm), from side to
side. Try to tug it forward and check to see
if the LATCH attachment holds the re-
straint in place. If the restraint is not se-
cure, tighten the LATCH attachment as
necessary, or put the restraint in another
seat and test it again. You may need to try
a different child restraint or try installing
by using the vehicle seat belt (if appli-
cable). Not all child restraints fit in all types
of vehicles.5. Check to make sure the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use. If the
child restraint is loose, repeat steps 2
through 4.

Installing top tether strap
The child restraint top tether strap must be
used when installing the child restraint with
the LATCH lower anchor attachments. First,
secure the child restraint with the LATCH
lower anchors (rear outboard seating posi-
tions only).
The LATCH anchor points are provided to
install child restraints in the rear outboard
seating positions only, as shown. Do not at-
tempt to install a child restraint in the center
position using the LATCH anchors.
WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used to attachadult seat belts, or other items or equip-
ment to the vehicle. Doing so could damage
the child restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly installed us-
ing the damaged anchorage, and a child
could be seriously injured or killed in a
collision.
Outboard seating positions with removable
head restraints/headrests:
1. If necessary, raise or remove the head
restraint/headrest and store it in a secure
place. Be sure to reinstall the head
restraint/headrest when the child re-
straint is removed. For additional informa-
tion about head restraint/headrest ad-
justment, removal and installation, refer to
"Head restraints/Headrests".
2. Position the top tether strap
1over the
seatback as shown.
3. Secure the tether strap to the tether an-
chor point
2on the seatback behind the
child restraint as shown.
4.
Tighten the tether strap according to the
manufacturer's instructions to remove any
slack.
Outboard seating positions with fixed head
restraints/headrests:
1. If the child restraint has a single tether
strap, route the strap
1over the top of
the outer head restraint/headrest. If the
child restraint has two tether straps, route
them round each side of the outer head
restraint/headrest.
2. Secure the tether strap to the tether an-
chor point
2on the seatback behind the
child restraint as shown.
