Transporting children safely

LATCH child-restraint

system

LATCH: Lower Anchor and Tethers for CHil-
dren.

For attachment and use of LATCH child-
restraint system, follow the operating and

safety instructions of the system manufac-
turer.

Before attaching the child's seat, pull the belt
out of the vicinity of the child's seat attachment
points.

Make sure that the LATCH anchors have
correctly engaged and the child restraint

device is resting snugly against the backrest.

Rear seats

The anchorage points for the LATCH mounts
are located behind the cover caps. Before
installing the child's seat, pull the cover caps
out toward the front.

Child restraint device with tether strap

The top tether strap attachment points
are only intended for attachment of child

restraint device; other uses can damage the
attachment points.

For child restraint devices with tether straps,
there are three additional attachment points,
refer to arrows, under covers in the floor of the
cargo area. Remove the corresponding cover
before use.

Routing of tether strap

Make sure that the tether strap is not
routed over sharp objects and does not

twist on its way to the attachment point; other-
wise, the belt can fail to properly secure the
child restraint device in the event of an acci-
dent.
