Frequently Asked Questions About Installing Child Restraints With LATCH
What is the weight limit (child’s
weight + weight of the child restraint)
for using the LATCH anchorage sys-
tem to attach the child restraint?
65 lbs
(29.5 kg)
Use the LATCH anchorage system until the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint is 65 lbs
(29.5 kg). Use the seat belt and tether anchor instead of the
LATCH system once the combined weight is more than
65 lbs (29.5 kg).
Can the LATCH anchorages and the
seat belt be used together to attach a
rear-facing or forward-facing child re-
straint?
No Do not use the seat belt when you use the LATCH anchor-
age system to attach a rear-facing or forward-facing child
restraint.
Booster seats may be attached to the LATCH anchorages if
allowed by the booster seat manufacturer. See your booster
seat owner’s manual for more information.
Can two child restraints be attached
using a common lower LATCH an-
chorage?
No Never “share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child
restraints. If the center position does not have dedicated
LATCH lower anchorages, use the seat belt to install a
child seat in the center position next to a child seat using
the LATCH anchorages in an outboard position.
Can the rear-facing child restraint
touch the back of the front passenger
seat?
Yes The child seat may touch the back of the front passenger
seat if the child restraint manufacturer also allows contact.
See your child restraint Owner’s Manual for more informa-
tion.
Can the head restraints be removed? Yes All second row head restraints are removable.
