72 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
If the belt still can't be tightened, or if pulling and
pushing on the restraint loosens the belt, disconnect the
latch plate from the buckle, turn the buckle around, and
insert the latch plate into the buckle again. If you still
can't make the child restraint secure, try a different
seating position.
Child Restraint Tether Anchor
The Extended Cab model has one routing strap
located at the bottom of the rear outboard
seating position. The tether anchor itself is
located in the center of vehicle, in between the
two seating positions. When there is a rear seat delete
option, the tether anchorage located on the cab back
panel is designed to be used for the front seat center
seating position. The Crew Cab model has three anchor-
ages located behind each of the rear seating positions
(rear left, rear center, and rear right).
WARNING!
• With a child restraint installed in the rear passen-
ger side locations, use care when adjusting the
front seat(s) rearward, to avoid the front seatback
coming in contact with the belted child directly
behind the seat. The child could be injured.
• Improper installation can lead to failure of an
infant or child restraint. It could come loose in a
collision. The child could be seriously injured or
killed. Make sure the child restraint tether strap is
always routed through the proper anchor strap
inner loop.
