Regular Cab
For regular cab models, the top
tether anchors are under covers on
the back panel behind the
passenger seat. Remove the trim
plug to access the anchor. Be sure
to use an anchor on the same side
of the vehicle as the seating
position where the child restraint will
be placed.
Crew Cab Shown, Double Cab
Similar
For crew and double cab models,
the top tether anchors are the loops
near the top of the seatback for
each rear seating position. These
loops will be used to route the top
tether through, as well as to secure
the top tether to the vehicle. Be sure
to use the anchor (loop) on the
same side of the vehicle as the
seating position where the child
restraint will be placed.
Be sure to read the following
instructions to properly install a child
restraint using these loops.
Seats and Restraints
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 0 94 for additional
information.
