Route the tether strap under the head restraint and between the head restraint posts. Locate the correct anchor for the selected rear seating position. When placing a child safety seat in the 2nd row center seating position of the 5 passenger vehicle, the tether straps may be attached to either of the tether anchors located at the rear of the cargo area. · Behind 2nd row seat · At the rear of the cargo area 168 Seating and Safety Restraints 4. Clip the tether strap to the anchor. If the tether strap is clipped incorrectly, the child safety seat may not be retained properly in the event of a collision. Install the child safety seat tightly using the LATCH anchors or safety belts. Follow the instructions in this chapter. 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 for child seat anchors 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 seat 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 child safety seats with tether straps in this chapter. 169 Seating and Safety Restraints Your vehicle has LATCH anchors for child seat installation at the seating positions marked with the child seat symbol: · 5 passenger vehicle · 6 passenger vehicle · 7 passenger vehicle 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. 170 Seating and Safety Restraints The lower anchors for child seat installation are located at the rear section of the second row seat between the cushion and seat back. The LATCH anchors are below the locator symbols on the seat back. 'The anchors on the 2nd row outboard seats are provided only to install child seats at the outboard seats. DO NOT install a child seat at the center 2nd row seat using LATCH attachments (rigid or mounted on belt webbing) mounted to the inboard lower anchors at the outboard seats. If you install a child seat at the center 2nd row position, use the vehicle belt and the top tether anchor. Follow the child seat manufacturer's instructions to properly install a child seat with LATCH attachments. The plastic LATCH guides can be obtained from an authorized dealer. They snap onto the LATCH lower anchors in the seat to help attach a child seat with rigid attachments. [. . . ] The VIN number is also found on the Certification label.
