Lower Anchors
Options for installing two child seats using the
LAT
CH anchorages in this vehicle:
1. Right and left outboard seating positions
(
1 and 3): Install the child seats in the right
and left outboard seating positions using
lower anchorages A and B, and D and E.
Do not use the center seat anchorage, C.
If the child seats do not block the center
se
at belt webbing and buckle, the center
seat belt can be used to restrain an
occupant or child restraint in the center
seating position.
2. Left outboard and center seating positions
(
3 and 2): Install the first child seat in the
left outboard seating position using lower
anchorages D and E. Install the second
child seat using the center anchorages, B
and C. Do not use the outer anchorage
closest to the opposite door, A. Do not use
the remaining right outboard seating
position (1) for any occupant. The center
child restraint will block the seat belt buckle
for this position.
Always follow the directions of the child
re
straint manufacturer when installing your
child restraint. Not all child restraint systems
will be installed as described here.
To Install A LATCH-Compatible Child
Restraint
If the selected seating position has a
Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
seat belt, stow the seat belt, following the
instructions below. See the section “Installing
Child Restraints Using the Vehicle Seat Belt” to
check what type of seat belt each seating
position has.
WARNING!
Use anchorages B and C to install a
LATCH-compatible child restraint in the
center seating position (2). Do not
install a
LATCH-compatible child restraint using
anchorages C and D. This is not a
LATCH-compatible position in your vehicle.
A child restraint installed in the center posi-
tion (2) will block the seat belt buckle for
th
e empty right outboard seat behind the
front passenger (1). Do not use this seat for
another occupant.
Never use the same lower anchorage to
attach more than one child restraint.
If you are installing three child restraints
next to each other, you must use the seat
belt and the center tether anchor for the
center position. You can then use either the
LATCH anchors or the vehicle’s seat belt for
installing the child seats in the outboard
positions. Please refer to “To Install the
LATCH-Compatible Child Restraint System”
for typical installation instructions.
