LATCH (LOWER ANCHORS AND
TETHER FOR CHILDREN)
SYSTEM
WARNING
IAttach LATCH system compatible
child restraints only at the locations
shown. If a child restraint is not se-
cured properly, your child could be
seriously injured or killed in an
accident.IDo not secure a child restraint in the
center rear seating position using the
child restraint lower anchors. The
child restraint will not be secured
properly.
IThe LATCH system anchors are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstance are
they to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses.
Some child restraints include two rigid or
webbing-mounted attachments that can be
connected to two anchors located at certain
seating positions in your vehicle. This system
is known as the LATCH (Lower Anchors and
Tether for Children) system. This system may
also be referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX
compatible system. With this system, you do
not have to use a vehicle seat belt to secure
the child restraint. Your vehicle is equipped
with special anchor points that are used with
LATCH system compatible child restraints.
Check your child restraint for a label stating
that it is compatible with the LATCH system.
This information may also be in the child
restraint owner's manual. If you have such a

signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstance is it to

INever install a rear facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat.

great force. A rear facing child re-
straint could be struck by the supple-
mental air bag in a crash and could
seriously injure or kill your child.INISSAN recommends that child re-
straints be installed in the rear seat.
However, if you must install a front
facing child restraint in the front pas-
senger seat, move the passenger
seat to the rearmost position.
IA child restraint with a top tether
strap should not be used in the front
passenger seat.

IFailure to use the retractor's locking
mode will result in the child restraint
not being properly secured. The child
restraint could tip over or otherwise
be unsecured and cause injury to the
child in a sudden stop or collision.
Front facingIf you must install a child restraint in the front
seat, follow these steps:
1. Position the child restraint on the front
passenger seat.It should be placed in a
front facing direction only.Move the seat
to the rearmost position. Always follow the
child restraint manufacturer's instructions.
Child restraints for infants must be used
in the rear facing direction and therefore
must not be used in the front seat.2. Route the seat belt tongue through the child
restraint and insert it into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage. Be sure
to follow the child restraint manufacturer's
instructions for belt routing.
