Owner`s manual

• Child seats with flexible or fixed rigid attachments can be installed in all rear seating positions.
Child seats can be installed using the LATCH system in either or both outboard seating
positions or the center position, but not all three at the same time. If a child seat is installed in
an outboard seating position using the lower anchors, then the vehicle seatbelt must be used
for the center position.
• Never install LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a common lower
anchorage.
•
The rear seat lower anchorages are round bars, located at the rear of the seat cushion where it
meets the seatback. The rear seat lower anchors can be readily identified by the symbol
located on the seatback directly above the anchorages and are just visible when you lean into the
rear seat to install the child restraint.
• In addition, there are tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located in the
panel between the rear seatback and the rear window. These tether strap anchorages are under
a plastic cover.
• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the lower
straps and tether straps so that you can at-
tach the hook or connector to the lower and
tether anchorages more easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over
the top of the seat cover material.
• Then rotate the tether anchorage cover directly behind the seat where you are placing the child
restrain and attach the tether strap to the anchorage, being careful to route the tether strap to
provide the most direct path between the anchor and the child restrain.
•
Tighten all three straps as you push the child
restraint rearward and downward into the seat.
• For center seating position route the tether
strap over the seatback and adjustable
headrest (with the headrest in the full down
position) then attach the hook to the tether
anchor located in the panel between the rear
seatback and the rear window.
