7. Tighten the child safety seat tether strap

according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

If the safety seat is not anchored properly,

the risk of a child being injured in a collision

greatly increases.

Attaching safety seats with LATCH (Lower

Anchors and Tethers for Children) attachments

Some child safety seats have two rigid or webbing

mounted attachments that connect to two anchors

at certain seating positions in your vehicle. This type

of child seat eliminates the need to use safety belts

to attach the child seat. For forward-facing child

seats, the tether strap must also be attached to the

proper tether anchor. See Attaching safety seats

with tether straps in this chapter.

Your vehicle has LATCH anchors for child seat

installation at the seating positions marked with the

child seat symbol.

The center of the rear seat is NOT designed

as a seating position. The LATCH anchors

were not designed to be used with a child seat in

the center position and there is no tether anchor

available at the center. Attempted use of the

center as a seating position will increase the risk

of injury or death in the event of a collision.

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.
