LATCH stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren.
The LATCH system can make installation easier without using
the vehicle’s seat belts.LATCH is a way to secure your child restraint
to your vehicle by using the LATCH connectors on your child restraint
base.These connectors attach to the lower points in certain vehicle
seating positions.Refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for LATCH
locations.
The child restraint base is designed to be
used at the standard spacing of 11” (28
cm) from the center of one anchor point to
the center of another anchor point.Please
refer to your vehicle owner’s manual for
information about using LATCH in certain
seating positions.
LATCH may be used for spacing larger
than 11” (28 cm) ONLY if your vehicle
manufacturer allows it.
If your vehicle does not have lower anchor points, you can still install
your child restraint with the vehicle’s belt system.
