You'll be using the lap-shoulder belt. See Top Strap on
page 1-42 if the child restraint has one. Be sure to
follow the instructions that came with the child restraint.
Secure the child in the child restraint when and as
the instructions say.
1. Your vehicle has a right front passenger air bag. If
your vehicle is a regular cab pickup or extended
cab pickup and you are using a rear-facing
child restraint in this seat, make sure the air bag is
turned off. See Air Bag Off Switch on page 1-61 .
On all models, if your child restraint is
forward-facing, always move the seat as far back
as it will go before securing it in this seat. See
Manual Seats on page 1-3 or Power Seats
on page 1-4 .
2. Put the restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle's safety belt through or
around the restraint. The child restraint instructions
will show you how.

4. Buckle the belt. Make sure the release button is
positioned so you would be able to unbuckle the
safety belt quickly if you ever had to.
