Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren (LATCH) SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with special
anchor points that are used with LATCH
system compatible child restraints. 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 unless the combined weight of
the child and child restraint exceeds 65
lbs (29.5 kg). If the combined weight of the
child and child restraint is greater than 65
lbs (29.5 kg), use the vehicle’s seat belt
(not the lower anchors) to install the child
restraint. Be sure to follow the childrestraint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation.
The LATCH anchor points can be used to
install child restraints in either of the rear
outboard 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.
CAUTION
Store the loose LATCH covers (for
example, in the console box) where
they will not get damaged to avoid
losing them. (See “Console box” (P.2-
75).)
LATCH lower anchor
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use and in-
stallation of child restraints could
result in serious injury or death of a
child or other passengers in a sud-
den stop or collision:

WAB0117X
LATCH in the center rear seating
position
A 5th LATCH anchor can be found be-
tween the outboard LATCH anchor pairs.
It is specifically designed to be used
together with the inboard LATCH anchor
on the driver’s side, in order to install a
CRS in the rear center seating position.
These anchors utilize standard LATCH
anchor spacing,
of 11.02 in (280mm).
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
overload the anchor in a collision,
which could increase the risk of the
occupant’s serious injury or death.
When installing the CRS in the center
rear seating position with the in-
board LATCH anchors, be careful to
ensure any occupant or CRS in the
outboard seating positions is prop-
erly restrained using the vehicle seat
belt and there is no interference with
the center CRS installation. If the
outboard occupants cannot be prop-
erly restrained, consider using 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
recline feature to align the left 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 reclined than the
other. This may create an unstable
surface on which to install the CRS.

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
Properly secure cargo and do not
allow it to contact the top tether
strap when it is attached to the top
tether anchor. Cargo that is not
properly secured or cargo that con-
tacts the top tether strap may da-
mage the top tether strap during acollision. If the cargo cover (if so
equipped) contacts the top tether
strap when it is attached to the top
tether anchor, remove the cargo
cover from the vehicle. If the cargo
cover is not removed, it may damage
the top tether strap during a colli-
sion. Your child could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision if the
child restraint top tether strap is
damaged.

WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circumstances
are they to be used to attach adult
seat belts, or other items or equip-
ment to the vehicle. Doing so could
damage the child restraint an-
chorages. The child restraint will not
be properly installed using the da-
maged anchorage, and a child could
be seriously injured or killed in a

If a child restraint has a top tether strap, it
must be used when installing with the
LATCH lower anchor attachments or seat
belts as instructed by the child restraint
manufacturer.

ling a top tether strap child restraint on
the rear seat, it is recommended you

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. See “Installing
top tether strap” (P.1-37). 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.

6. After attaching the child restraint, testit before you place the child in it. Push
it from side to side while holding the
child restraint near the LATCH attach-
ment 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 attach-
ment holds the restraint in place. If the
restraint is not secure, 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. Not all child
restraints fit in all types of vehicles. 7. Check to make sure the child restraint
is properly secured prior to each use. If
the child restraint is loose, repeat
steps 1 through 6.

instructions outlined in this section.
Precautions on booster seats
WARNING
If a booster seat and seat belt are not
used properly, the risk of a child
being injured or killed in a sudden
stop or collision greatly increases:
.
Make sure the shoulder portion of
the belt is away from the child’s
face and neck and the lap portion
of the belt does not cross the
stomach.
. Make sure the shoulder belt is not
behind the child or under the
child’s arm.
. A booster seat must only be
installed in a seating position that
has a lap/shoulder belt.
