CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING THE SEAT BELTS –
PASSENGER’S SIDE JUMP SEAT
(King cab models only)
WARNING
cThe three-point seat belt in your vehicle
is equipped with an Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) which must be used
when installing a child restraint.
cFailure to use the ALR mode will result
in the child restraint not being properly
secured. The restraint could tip over or
otherwise be unsecured and cause in-
jury to the child in a sudden stop or
collision.
WARNING
cWhen installing a child restraint system
in the passenger’s side jump seat posi-
tion be sure to unfold the seat exten-
sion on the jump seat. If the jump seat
extension is not properly used, the child
restraint will not be installed correctly
and the child could be injured in a col-
lision or sudden stop.
cNever install a child restraint on the
driver’s side jump seat. A child restraint
can not be properly installed in the driv-
er’s side jump seat and the child could
be injured in a collision or sudden stop.
