Restraint Functions

Switching the LATCH Connector

LATCH connectors will properly connect with LATCH anchor in the vehicle only when connectors are correctly aligned and harness is not twisted.

To ensure LATCH connector is properly aligned with vehicle’s LATCH anchor, the connector’s red release button should face away from vehicle seat back, and the larger of the two connector sections is on top

(fig. A).

If LATCH connector will not properly connect to LATCH anchor in the vehicle, LATCH straps are twisted, or a positive click is not heard, connectors must be switched from one side to the other. This will ensure that connectors are correctly aligned.

1�Lift front of cover to access LATCH connector.

2�Slide both connectors through rear- facing belt slots to center of restraint so both connectors are on the front side of restraint (fig. B).

3�Loosen loop on one connector (fig. C). 4�Thread the other connector through

loop created in step 3 to switch positions

(fig. D).

5�Slide each connector through the appropriate rear-facing belt slot to opposite side of restraint.

6�Replace cover and continue with installation procedure.
