locking retractor seat belts, refer to
ЉAutomatic Locking
Mode
Љ earlier in this section. If you have trouble tighten-
ing the lap/shoulder belt on the child restraint because
the buckle or latch plate is too close to the belt path
opening on the restraint, follow these steps. If the buckle
is webbing mounted, disconnect the latch plate from the
buckle and twist the short buckle-end belt to shorten it.
Insert the latch plate into the buckle with the release
button facing out. If the belt still can’t be tightened, the
buckle is not webbing mounted, or if by pulling and
pushing on the restraint loosens the belt, you may need
to do something more. Disconnect the latch plate from
the buckle, turn the latch plate 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
or use the locking clip provided with your child restraint.
See the section
ЉChild Restraint Tether AnchorЉ to com-
plete the child seat installation.
Child Restraint Tether Anchor
The Club Cab model has two routing straps
located behind each of the rear outboard seat-
ing positions. The tether anchor itself is located
in the center of vehicle, in between the two
seating positions. The front outboard passenger seating
position is also equipped with a child tether anchorage,
located at the base of the front seat back. 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 Quad cab model has
three anchorages located behind each of the rear seating
positions (rear left, rear center, and rear right).
