3. Push the anchor connectors (D) on the
child restraint system into the lower
anchors (C) in accordance with the
instructions provided by the child restraint
system manufacturer.
Remember, the lower anchors provided
with your vehicle are designed to secure
suitable child restraint systems compat-
ible with the LATCH system in the out-
board positions of the rear seats only.
The anchor connectors are NOT
designed to secure a suitable child
restraint system in the center position
of the rear seat.
4. On a vehicle equipped with a rear shelf
panel, remove the rear shelf panel from
the vehicle. (Refer to “Rear shelf panel”
on page 5-110.)
5. Open the slit on the backboard cloth of the
seatback, latch the tether strap hook (E) of
the child restraint system to the tether
anchor bar (F) and tighten the tether strap
so it is securely fastened.
6. Push and pull the child restraint system in
all directions to ensure it is firmly
secured.

In order to secure a child restraint system
compatible with the LATCH system, you
must use the lower anchor points in the out-
board positions of the rear seat. To secure a
child restraint system in the center position
of the rear seat, you must use the vehicle’s
center seat belt.
If there is any foreign material in or
around the lower anchors, remove it
before installing the child restraint sys-
tem. Also, make sure the seat belt is away
from, not looped through or otherwise
interfering with, the child restraint sys-
tem. If foreign matter is not removed
and/or the seat belt interferes with the
child restraint system, the child restraint
system will not be secured properly, could
detach and move forward in the event of
sudden braking or an accident, and could
result in injury to the child or other vehi-
cle occupants.
When the vehicle is moving, do not adjust
the seat where the child restraint system is
installed.
Child restraint system tether anchors are
designed only to withstand loads from cor-
rectly fitted child restraint systems. Under
no circumstances are they to be used for
adult seat belts, harnesses, or for attach-
ing other items or equipment to the vehi-
cle.
