Seats and Restraints
71
To assist in locating the lower anchors, each
row anchor position has a label, near the
crease on the seat cushion.
The lower anchors are behind the vertical
openings in the seat cushion trim located
below the anchor label.
To assist in locating the top tether anchors,
the top tether anchor symbol is near the
top tether anchors.
Top Tether Anchors
The top tether anchors for each rear seating
position are on the back of the rear
seatback. The rear compartment storage
panel/cover might need to be adjusted to
access the anchors. Be sure to use an anchor
on the same side of the vehicle as the
seating position where the child restraint
will be placed.
Do not secure a child restraint in a position
without a top tether anchor if a national or
local law requires that the top tether be
attached, or if the instructions that come
with the child restraint say that the top
tether must be attached.
According to accident statistics, children and
infants are safer when properly restrained in
a child restraint system or infant restraint
system secured in a rear seating position.

Warning
A child could be seriously injured or killed
in a crash if the child restraint is not
properly attached to the vehicle using
either the LATCH anchors or the vehicle
seat belt. Follow the instructions that
came with the child restraint and the
instructions in this manual.
