LATCH is an acronym for Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren and refers to a pair of xed
Lower Anchors (or metal bars) and a Top Tether
anchor that are built into your vehicle,
in vehicles built after September 1, 2002.
The lower LATCH anchors are located in the seat
bight, between the vehicle seat back and the seat
cushion. If they are not visible, they will typically
be indicated by symbols. Top tether anchors are
located in various places behind the rear vehicle
seat.
NOTE: The Summer Infant Afrm™335 does
not require use of a tether strap. ONLY the lower
anchors are used with this child restraint.
