To install a LATCH anchorage child seat:

1. Raise or remove the head restraint.
2. Lift the velcro flap to expose the LATCH anchor bars.
For child seats fitted with rigid lower LATCH connectors, insert the protective guides supplied with the child seat.
3. For child seats fitted with rigid lower LATCH connectors, slide the child seat locking mechanism into the protective sleeves and onto the anchor bars.
For child seats fitted with non-rigid LATCH connectors, connect the lower tether strap hooks to the anchor bars and tighten the straps.
4. If an upper tether is fitted to the child seat, ensure it is properly secured to the upper tether anchorages on the rear of the seats. Test the security of the child restraint. To do this, attempt to pull the restraint away from the vehicle seat and twist the restraint from side to side. Even if the restraint appears secure, you should still check the anchor points visually, to ensure correct attachment.

WARNING WARNING

Do not attempt to fit a LATCH child restraint to the center rear seating position. The anchor bars are not designed to hold a LATCH child restraint in this position. Install only using seat belts (non-LATCH system) and the top tether at this position.

WARNING WARNING

If the restraint is not correctly anchored, there is a significant risk of injury to the child in the event of a collision or emergency braking.

WARNING WARNING

If removing a head restraint in order to fit a child restraint, always secure the head restraint when storing it.

Installing tether anchorage child restraints WARNING

Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other items or equipment to the vehicle.

WARNING WARNING

Always follow the child seat or restraint system manufacturer’s instructions when fitting tether straps.

WARNING WARNING

When fitting a child seat or restraint system, always pass the tether strap over the top of the seat back and beneath the head restraint.

WARNING WARNING

If a child seat or restraint system is to be fitted to the center seating position, the center armrest must be in the stowed position (folded into the seat).

Your vehicle is equipped with anchorage points on the back of the second row

Your vehicle is equipped with anchorage points on the back of the second row seat frames. These should be used to attach straps from child seats or restraint systems.

1. Install the child restraint securely in one of the rear seating positions.
2. Pass the tether strap over the seat back and beneath the head restraint.
3. Attach the tether strap hook to the tether anchor point. Ensure that the tether strap hook is facing the correct way (see illustration).
4. Tighten the tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturer's instructions.

Note: A tether anchorage is provided for the center seat position. Do not use this anchor position with a LATCH anchorage child seat.
