Second Row — 60/40
(Lower Anchor): Seating positions with two lower anchors.

Second Row — Bucket
(Lower Anchor): Seating positions with two lower anchors.
(Top Tether Anchor): Seating positions with top tether anchors. For models with second row bucket seats, both rear seating positions have exposed metal anchors in the crease between the seatback and the seat cushion.
(Top Tether Anchor): Seating positions with top tether anchors. There is one top tether anchor that can be used for either the third row center or driver side seating position but not both at the same time.
For models with a third row seat, see the information following for installing a child restraint with a top tether in the third row. Never install two top tethers using the same top tether anchor.
To assist in locating the top tether anchors, the top tether anchor symbol appears near the anchors.
Second Row Seat — Bucket
For models with bucket second row seating, the top tether anchors are at the bottom rear of the seat cushion for each seating position in the second row. Be sure to use an anchor on the same side of the vehicle as the seating position where the child restraint will be placed.
Second Row Seat — 60/40
For models with 60/40 second row seating, the top tether anchors are at the bottom rear of the seat cushion for each seating position in the second row. Be sure to use an anchor on the same side of the vehicle as the seating position where the child restraint will be placed.
Third Row Seat
For vehicles with a third row seat, there is one top tether anchor at the bottom rear of the seat cushion that can be used for either the third row center or driver side seating position. Never install two top tethers using the same top tether anchor.
Do not secure a child restraint in a position without a top tether anchor if a national or local law requires that the top tether be attached, or if the instructions that come with the child restraint say that the top tether must be attached.
According to accident statistics, children and infants are safer when properly restrained in a child restraint system or infant restraint system secured in a rear seating position. See Where to Put the Restraint for additional information.
