Mounts for lower anchors
General information
The lower anchors may be used to attach
the CRS to the vehicle seat up to a com-
bined child and CRS weight of 65 lbs/30 kg
when the child is restrained by the internal
harnesses.
Safety information
Warning
If the lower anchors on child restraint sys-
tem are not engaged correctly, the child
restraint system will not be able to pro-
vide suitable protection. There is a risk of
injury or danger to life. Make sure that
the lower anchors are correctly engaged
and that the child restraint system fits se-
curely against the backrest.
Warning
The mounts for the lower anchors and
attachment points of the child restraint
system are intended for attaching child re-
straint systems only. If other objects are
attached, the mounts or attachment points
can be damaged. There is a risk of injury
or risk of damage to property. Only attach
child restraint systems at the correspond-
ing mounts for the lower anchors or at-
tachment points.
Position
Icon Meaning
The corresponding icon
shows the mounts for the
lower LATCH anchors.

use the inner lower anchors
of standard outer LATCH
positions to fasten a child
restraint system on the mid-
dle seat. Use the vehicle
seat belt instead for the
middle seat.

systems
