install the child restraint. Be sure to follow
the child restraint manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for installation.
The LATCH anchor points can be used to
install child restraints in either the rear out-
board seating positions or in the center
rear seating position. Please refer to the
following section of this Owner’s Manual for
specific information about installing a child
restraint in the center rear seating position
using the LATCH anchors.
LATCH lower anchor
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use and installa-
tion of child restraints could result in
serious injury or death of a child or
other passengers in a sudden stop or
collision:
• Only attach LATCH system compat-
ible child restraints to the Lower An-
chors shown in the illustration. For
additional information, refer to the
following sections of this Owner’s
Manual for installation guidance. •
Inspect the lower anchors by insert-
ing your fingers into the lower an-
chor area. Feel to make sure there are
no obstructions over the anchors
such as seat belt webbing or seat
cushion material. The child restraint
will not be secured properly if the
lower anchors are obstructed.
Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to
the vehicle. Doing so could damage the
child restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly installed
using the damaged anchorage, and a
child could be seriously injured or killed
in a collision.
LATCH lower anchor location
The LATCH lower anchors are located as
shown. A label is attached to the seatback
to help you locate the LATCH lower
anchors.

LATCH in the center rear seating
position
There are no LATCH anchors dedicated to
the center rear seating position. However,
the inboard LATCH anchors belonging to
the two outboard seating positions (indi-
cated by the arrows) can be used together
to secure a CRS in the center rear seating
position. These anchors are separated by a
distance
OAof 17.2 in (438.5 mm). Before
attempting to secure a CRS in this seating
position, ensure that the CRS manufactur-
er’s instructions permit the use of LATCH
anchors with the spacing indicated above. (These are sometimes referred to as
“shared anchors” or “borrowed anchors.”)
CRS with rigid lower attachments cannot
be installed in the center seat. This type of
CRS should only be installed in the out-
board seating positions.
WARNING
Never attach two CRS attachments to
the same LATCH anchor. This may over-
load the anchor in a collision, which
could increase the risk of the occu-
pant’s serious injury or death.
When installing the CRS in the center
rear seating position with the inboard
LATCH anchors, be careful to ensure any
occupant or CRS in the outboard seat-
ing positions is properly restrained us-
ing the vehicle seat belt and there is no
interference with the center CRS instal-
lation. If the outboard occupants can-
not be properly restrained, consider us-
ing the vehicle seat belt to restrain the
CRS in the center seating position, or
moving the CRS to another position
instead. When installing a CRS in the center
seating position, use the seat back re-
cline feature to align the lef t and right
sides of the seat back, creating one
evenly reclined surface. Never install a
CRS in the center seating position when
one part of the seat back is further re-
clined than the other. This may create
an unstable surface on which to install
the CRS. Failure to evenly recline the
seat backs before CRS installation
could increase the risk of the occu-
pant’s serious injury or death. Remem-
ber to re-check that the CRS is properly
installed any time the seats are re-
clined or adjusted.

Installing child restraint LATCH
lower anchor attachments
LATCH compatible child restraints include
two rigid or webbing-mounted attach-
ments that can be connected to two an-
chors located at certain seating positions
in your vehicle. With this system, you do not
have to use a vehicle seat belt to secure the
child restraint. Check your child restraint for
a label stating that it is compatible with
LATCH. This information may also be in the
instructions provided by the child restraint
manufacturer.When installing a child restraint, carefully
read and follow the instructions in this
manual and those supplied with the child
restraint.
Top tether anchor
WARNING
• Do not allow cargo to contact the top
tether strap when it is attached to
the top tether anchor. Properly se-
cure the cargo so it does not contact
the top tether strap. Cargo that is
not properly secured or cargo that
contacts the top tether strap may
damage it during a collision. A child
could be seriously injured or killed in
a collision if the top tether strap is
damaged.
• Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to
the vehicle. Doing so could damage
the child restraint anchorages. The
child restraint will not be properly in-
stalled using the damaged anchor-
ages, and a child could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision.

REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING LATCH
For additional information, see all Warnings
and Cautions in “Child safety” (P. 1-24) and
“Child restraints” (P. 1-26) before installing a
child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the com-
bined weight of the child and the child re-
straint exceeds 65 lbs. (29.5 kg). If the com-
bined weight of the child and the child
restraint is greater than 65 lbs. (29.5 kg), use
the vehicle's seat belt (not the lower an-
chors) 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 rear bench seats using
the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint manu-
facturer's instructions.

REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING THE SEAT
BELTS
WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) must be
used when installing a child restraint.
Failure to use the ALR mode will result
in the child restraint not being properly
secured. The restraint could tip over or
be loose and cause injury to a child in a
sudden stop or collision.
For additional information, see all Warnings
and Cautions in “Child safety” (P. 1-24) and
“Child restraints” (P. 1-26) before installing a
child restraint. Do not use the lower anchors if the com-
bined weight of the child and the child re-
straint exceeds 65 lbs. (29.5 kg). If the com-
bined weight of the child and the child
restraint is greater than 65 lbs. (29.5 kg), use
the vehicle’s seat belt (not the lower an-
chors) 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 using the vehicle seat belts in
the rear seats:
1.Child restraints for infants must be
used in the rear-facing direction and
therefore must not be used in the front
seat. Position the child restraint on the
seat. Always follow the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions.

belt as necessary, or put the restraint in
another seat and test it again. You may
need to try a different child restraint.
Not all child restraints fit in all types of
vehicles. 7. Check to make sure that the child re-
straint is properly secured prior to each
use. If the seat belt is not locked, repeat
steps 1 through 6.
Af ter the child restraint is removed and the
seat belt fully retracted, the ALR mode
(child restraint mode) is canceled.
FORWARD-FACING CHILD
RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING
LATCH
For additional information, see all Warnings
and Cautions in “Child safety” (P. 1-24) and
“Child restraints” (P. 1-26) before installing a
child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint ex-
ceeds 65 lbs. (29.5 kg). If the combined weight
of the child and the child restraint is greater
than 65 lbs. (29.5 kg), use the vehicle's seat belt
(not the lower anchors) to install the child re-
straint. Be sure to follow the child restraint
manufacturer's instructions for installation.
Follow these steps to install a forward-facing
child restraint in the rear bench seats using
the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint manu-
facturer's instructions.

2. Secure the child restraint anchor at-tachments to the LATCH lower anchors.
Check to make sure the LATCH attach-
ment is properly attached to the lower
anchors.
If the child restraint is equipped with a
top tether strap, route the top tether
strap and secure the tether strap to the
tether anchor point. For additional infor-
mation, see “Installing top tether strap”
(P. 1-39). Do not install child restraints that require
the use of a top tether strap in seating
positions that do not have a top tether
anchor.
3. The back of the child restraint should be secured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct
child restraint fit. If the head restraint/
headrest is removed, store it in a secure
place. Be sure to reinstall the head
restraint/headrest when the child re-
straint is removed. For additional infor-
mation, see “Head restraints/headrests”
(P. 1-9).
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint/headrest and
it is interfering with the proper child re-
straint fit, try another seating position or
a different child restraint.
