LATCH  — Child  Seat  Anchorage   System   (Lower
Anchors   and  Tether  for CHild  ren )
Your   vehicle’s   rear   seat  is   equ ipped   with   the   child
restraint   anchorage   system  called  LATCH.  The  LATCH
system  provid es  for the  installation  of  the child  restraint
withou t  using  the  vehicle’s   seat  belts,  instead   securing
the  child   restraint   using   lower  anchorages    and  upper
tether   strap s  from   the   child   restraint    to  the   vehicle
stru cture.
Child ren  Too Large  for  Booster  Seats
Child ren who  are large  enou gh to wear  the  shou lder belt
comfortably,   and  whose   legs  are  long  enou gh  to  bend
over  the  front of  the  seat when   their  back is  against  the
seat back,  shou ld use the  lap/  shou lder belt in  a rear seat.
Make  sure  that the  child  is upright   in the  seat.
LATCH-compatible   child restraint  system s are now  avail-
able.  However,  becau se  the  lower  anchorages   are  to  be
introd uced  over a period   of years, child  restraint  system s
having  attachm ents  for those  anchorages  will  continu e to
also have  featu res for  installation  using  the  vehicle’s seat
belts.  Child restraints   having  tether  strap s and  hooks  for
connection  to  the top  tether  anchorages   have  been avail-
able for  som e time. For som e older child  restraints,  many
child  restraint   manu factu rers  offer  add-on   tether   strap
The lap  portion  shou ld be low  on the hip s and  as snu g
as possible.
Check   belt  fit  period  ically.  A  child ’s squ irm ing  or
slou ching can  move  the  belt out  of position.
If the shou lder  belt contacts  the face  or neck, move  the
child  closer to  the center  of the  vehicle.  Never  allow a
child  to put  the shou lder  belt und er  an arm  or behind
their  back.
