GETTING STARTED
Installing The Lower Attachments:
• The vehicle lower anchorages are round bars located at the rear of the seat cushion
where it meets the seatback. The rear seat lower anchors can be readily identified
by the symbol
just visible when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint.
• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the
lower straps and on the tether strap so
that you can attach the hooks or con-
nectors to the vehicle anchors more
easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors
over the top of the seatcover material.
• Then tighten the straps as you push the
child restraint rearward and downward
into the seat.
Tether Anchorage Points At The Right And Center Front Seat (Regular Cab - All Seats):
• Place the child restraint on the seat and adjust the tether strap so that it will reach
over the seat back under the head restraint to the tether anchor directly behind the
seat.
• Lift the cover (if equipped), and attach
the hook to the square opening in the
sheet metal.
• Install the child restraint and remove
the slack in the tether strap according
to the manufacturer's instructions.
Child Restraint Installation Sequence (Mega Cab
• Place a child restraint on each outboard rear seat and adjust the tether strap so that
it will reach under the head restraint to the tether anchor directly behind the seat.
• Lift the cover, and attach the hook to the square opening in the sheet metal.
