LATCH and UAS are acronyms for Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren (USA) and Universal Anchorage System
(Canada), and refer to a pair of xed Lower Anchors (or bars)
and a Top Tether Anchor that are built into your vehicle, in
vehicles built after September 1, 2002. Your vehicle owner’s
manual may also refer to this system as ISOFIX or Lower
Universal Anchorage System (LUAS).
The lower LATCH/UAS anchors are located in the crease, or
bight, between the vehicle seat back and seat cushion, and
if not visible, will typically be indicated by the
symbol. Top
Tether Anchors are located in various places behind the rear
vehicle seat.
Center Seating Positions. CYBEX allows this Child Restraint
to be installed using the two inner Lower Anchors from the
outboard seating positions if (1) your vehicle owner's manual allows such an installation;
and (2) the distance between the inner Lower Anchors is 28-51 cm (11-20 in). When using
the inner Lower Anchors make sure there are no obstructions from a Buckle Stalk for the
installation or that the LATCH/UAS Connectors do not block vehicle belt buckles.
This Child Restraint can be safely installed using either LATCH/UAS or vehicle belts and
meets the requirements of Federal Safety Standard FMVSS 213 and Canadian Safety
Standard CMVSS 213 with either installation method. Either method is safe for your child
when installed correctly.
