LATCH System On This Car Seat:
The LATCH System on the Victoria Car Seat consists of a lower anchor belt with lower
anchor connectors and for forward-facing use, a top tether strap with tether hook (fig. a).
Rear-facing car seat installation typically uses only the lower anchor belt with lower anchor
connectors (fig. b), no top tether.
Securing Car Seat To Vehicle:
The lower anchor connectors and top tether hook on the car seat connect to the LATCH
System in a vehicle.
LATCH
System In Vehicles:
Child restraint anchorage system or LATCH System in the vehicle consists of two lower
anchors located at the vehicle seat bight and a top tether anchor (fig. c). Refer
to vehicle owner’s manual for seating locations which have the LATCH System.
Lower anchors may not be visible in some vehicles. Lower anchors that are not visible are
located below a solid color round dot on the vehicle upholstery or a round dot with a picture
of a car seat in the center as shown in fig. d.
The vehicle manufacturer may provide funnel guides to separate the vehicle seat
cushions providing easier access to the lower anchorage. See vehicle owner’s manual.
