Buick Encore: Child Restraints / Recommended Methods for Attaching Child Restraints

See Securing Child Restraints (With the Seat
Belt in the Rear Seat) or
Securing Child Restraints (With the Seat Belt
in the Front Seat).
Child restraints built after March 2014 will
be labeled with the specific child weight up
to which the LATCH system can be used to
install the restraint.
The following explains how to attach a child
restraint with these attachments in the
vehicle.
Not all vehicle seating positions have lower
anchors. In this case, the seat belt must be
used (with top tether where available) to
secure the child restraint. See Securing Child
Restraints (With the Seat Belt in the Rear
Seat) or
Securing Child Restraints (With the Seat Belt
in the Front Seat).
The LATCH system secures a child restraint
during driving or in a crash. LATCH
attachments on the child restraint are used
to attach the child restraint to the anchors
in the vehicle...
Lower anchors (1) are metal bars built into
the vehicle. There are two lower anchors for
each LATCH seating position that will
accommodate a child restraint with lower
attachments (2)...
Other information:
The rear door safety locks prevent
passengers from opening the rear doors
from inside the vehicle.
Manual Safety Locks
If equipped, the safety lock is located on the
inside edge of the rear doors. To use the
safety lock:
Insert the key into the safety lock slot
and turn it so the slot is in the
horizontal position...
The front passenger seatback folds flat.
Warning
If you fold the seatback forward to carry
longer objects, such as skis, be sure any
such cargo is not near an airbag. In a
crash, an inflating airbag might force that
object toward a person. This could cause
severe injury or even death...
Categories
All seating positions in the vehicle have a
lap-shoulder belt.
The following instructions explain how to
wear a lap-shoulder belt properly.
Adjust the seat, if the seat is adjustable,
so you can sit up straight. To see how,
see “Seats” in the Index.

Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt
across you. Do not let it get twisted.
