3-70 Seats and Restraints
In Canada, the law requires that
forward-facing child restraints have
a top tether, and that the tether be
attached.
If the child restraint does not have
the LATCH system, you will be
using the safety belt to secure the
child restraint in this position. Be
sure to follow the instructions that
came with the child restraint. Secure
the child in the child restraint when
and as the instructions say.
If more than one child restraint
needs to be installed in the rear
seat, be sure to read Where to Put
the Restraint on page 3‑60.
The vehicle's lap‐shoulder belts for
the first and second row seating
positions are equipped with
free‐falling latch plates. If the
vehicle has a third row, the
lap‐shoulder belts have either
free‐falling or cinching latch plates.
Use the following pictures to
determine the latch plate style:

1. Put the child restraint on
the seat.
2. Pick up the latch plate, and run
the lap and shoulder portions of
the vehicle's safety belt through
or around the restraint. The child
restraint instructions will show
you how.
