ing the use of a tether strap can be properly  
secured in the vehicle.

Properly engage the lower LATCH an‐  
chors

mounts for the lower LATCH anchors.  
Seats equipped with lower anchors are  
marked with a pair, 2, of LATCH sym‐

LATCH positions to fasten a child restraint  
system on the middle seat. Use the vehicle  
seat belt instead for the middle seat.
