Which Installation Method Should I Use?
This car seat can be installed in your vehicle using either the vehicle seat
belt OR the LATCH system. Both are equally safe to use. DO NOT USE BOTH
AT THE SAME TIME.
Vehicle Seat Belt: Review section 9 and your vehicle owner’s manual to
learn how to install your car seat with the vehicle seat belts.
LATCH: The LATCH system allows you to securely attach your safety seat
in your car without using the vehicle seat belt and possibly to get a better
fit. All 2003 and newer model year vehicles are required to have a LATCH
system, although some manufacturers began including LATCH earlier. Some
vehicle owner manuals use the term ISOFIX to identify the LATCH system.
According to crash statistics, the safest
place for your child in any vehicle is the
back seat. The center of the back seat can
be the safest during a possible side impact.

LATCH consists of lower anchors and top tether anchors, which are built-
in to your vehicle, and connecting hooks that are built-in to your car seat.
Lower anchors are used INSTEAD of the vehicle’s seat belt to secure the
child seat to the vehicle. Top tethers are used IN ADDITION to the lower
anchors OR the vehicle’s seat belt to secure a forward-facing car seat to
the vehicle.
Review your vehicle’s owner manual for exact location and use.

When Installing Rear-Facing or Forward-Facing
LATCH System

built-in to your vehicle, and connecting hooks
that are built-in your car seat.
Review section 3-B, 4-B of this manual AND
your vehicle owner’s manual before installing.
LATCH can only be used if the vehicle
LATCH anchor spacing is 11 inches (28 cm)
from the center of one LATCH anchor to the
center of the other LATCH anchor.
