Installing A Child Restraint With A Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR):
Child restraint systems are designed to be secured in vehicle seats by lap belts or the
lap belt portion of a lap/shoulder belt.
WARNING!
• Improper installation or failure to properly secure a child restraint can lead to
failure of the restraint. The child could be badly injured or killed.
• Follow the child restraint manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an
infant or child restraint.
1.
For Crew, Mega, And Quad Cab Models
Place the child seat in the center of the seating position. For some second row
seats, you may need to recline the seat and/or raise the head restraint to get a
better fit. If the rear seat can be moved forward and rearward in the vehicle, you
may wish to move it to its rear-most position to make room for the child seat. You
may also move the front seat forward to allow more room for the child seat.
For Regular Cab Models
Place the child seat in the center of the seating position. Move the vehicle seat
as far rearward as possible to keep the child as far from the advanced passenger
air bag as possible.
2. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to pass it through the belt
path of the child restraint. Do not twist the belt webbing in the belt path.
3. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.”
4. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight against the child seat.
