Securing a Child Restraint in a
Center Seat Position
Bench Seat
If your child restraint is equipped with the LATCH
system, see
Lower Anchorages and Top Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on page 1-52
. See
Top Strap
on page 1-48
if the child restraint has one.
There are no top strap anchors at the second and third
row center seating positions. Do not secure a child
seat in these positions if a national or local law requires
that the top strap be anchored, or if the instructions
that came with the child restraint say that the top strap
must be anchored.
If your child restraint does not have the LATCH system,
you’ll be using the lap belt to secure the child restraint
in this position. Be sure to follow the instructions
that came with the child restraint. Secure the child in the
child restraint when and as the instructions say.
1. Make the belt as long as possible by tilting the latch
plate and pulling it along the belt.
2. Put the restraint on the seat.
