268 SAFETY
Can two child restraints be attached
using a common lower LATCH
anchorage?
No
Never “share” a LATCH anchorage
with
two or more child restraints. If the
center position does not have dedicated
LATCH lower anchorages, use the seat
belt to install a child seat in the center
position next to a child seat using the
LATCH anchorages in an outboard
position.
Can the rear-facing child restraint touch
the
back of the front passenger seat?
Yes
The child seat may touch the back of the
fron
t passenger seat if the child restraint
manufacturer also allows contact. See
your child restraint owner’s manual for
more information.
Can the rear head restraints be
remo
ved?
Yes
The center head restraint can be
remo
ved if it interferes with the
installation of the child restraint.
See “Head Restraints” in “Getting To
Know
Your Vehicle” for further
information.
