The safest seating position is one that works

best for your specic car seat, family and

vehicle. When determining whether the infant

car seat can be used with LATCH in the rear

center seating position, it is critical that you

refer to your vehicle owner’s manual. If the

carrier does not install securely in the rear center

seating location, it is recommended to move to

one of the outboard seating positions.
