Seats and Restraints
If the position you are using has a
fixed head restraint and you are
using a dual tether, route the
tether around the sides of the head
restraint.
If the child restraint is installed next
to a center seat, make sure the top
tether does not interfere with the
center seating position shoulder
belt/retractor. If it does, find
another suitable seating position to
install the child restraint.
3.4. Adjust the top tether to its full
length and attach the top tether
hook to the anchor. Make sure that
you secure the top tether to the
top tether anchor and not to the
seatback latch.
3.5. Push rearward on the seatback until
it locks into its upright position.
Push and pull on the seatback to
make sure it is secured properly.
4. Attach and tighten the lower
attachments to the lower anchors. If the
child restraint does not have lower
attachments or the desired seating
position does not have lower anchors,
secure the child restraint with the seat
belt and the top tether. Refer to your
child restraint manufacturer instructions
and
Securing Child Restraints (With the
or
Securing Child Restraints (With the Seat
Belt in the Front Seat)
5. Tighten the top tether.
6. Before placing a child in the child
restraint, make sure it is securely held in
place. To check, grasp the child restraint
at the LATCH path and attempt to move
it side to side and back and forth. There
should be no more than 2.5 cm (1 in) of
movement for proper installation.
Extended Cab with Rear Seats
{
Warning
Never secure a rear-facing or
forward-facing child restraint in the left
rear seating position in an extended cab
model. This seating position is not
suitable for child restraint installation.
The seat cushion is too short to properly
support a rear-facing or forward-facing
child restraint. A child could be seriously
injured or killed in a sudden stop or
crash.
A booster seat can be used in the left or
right rear seating position if the base of
the booster seat fits on the seat cushion
and does not extend past the front edge.
If it does, it should be installed in the
right rear seating position using the seat
cushion extension. Only install a booster
seat in either rear seating position if it
can be properly installed according to the
child restraint manufacturer
’
s instructions.
A rear-facing or forward-facing child
restraint can be installed in the right rear
seating position using the seat cushion
