Never attach two LATCH child safety seats
to the same anchor. In a crash, one anchor
may not be strong enough to hold two child safety
seat attachments and may break, causing serious
injury or death.
The lower anchors for
child seat installation
are located at the rear
section of the rear seat
between the cushion
and seat back. The
LATCH anchors are
below the locator
symbols on the seat
back. One pair of
anchors are provided
for each rear designated seating position.
Follow the child seat manufacturer’s instructions to
properly install a child seat with LATCH
attachments. Two plastic LATCH guides can be
obtained at no charge from any Ford or
Lincoln-Mercury dealer. They snap onto the LATCH
lower anchors in the seat to help attach a child seat
with rigid attachments. The guides hold the seat
trim away to expose the anchor and make it easier
to attach some child seats.
Attach LATCH lower attachments of the
child seat only to the anchors shown.
If you install a child seat with rigid LATCH
attachments, do not tighten the tether strap enough
to lift the child seat off the vehicle seat cushion
when the child is seated in it. Keep the tether strap
just snug without lifting the front of the child seat.
Keeping the child seat just touching the vehicle seat
gives the best protection in a severe crash.
Each time you use the safety seat, check that the
seat is properly attached to the lower anchors and
tether anchor. Try to tilt the child seat from side to
