Child Restraints (LATCH)
Automatic Door Locks
(if equipped)
If your vehicle has a rear seat, it is
equipped with LATCH anchors and may
have top tethers for use with a LATCH-
compatible child restraint. If your child
restraint is not compatible with the
LATCH system, you may still use it
by installing the child restraint with the
safety belt system.
For your safety, vehicles equipped with
power door locks and Remote Keyless
Entry are programmed at the factory to
lock all doors automatically. The doors
will lock when all doors are closed, the
ignition is on and the gearshift lever is
moved out of Park on vehicles with an
automatic transmission, or when vehicle
speed is greater than 15 mph on vehi-
cles with a manual transmission. This
feature cannot be disabled.
You can personalize the automatic
unlock features through the Driver
Information Center.
See Sections 2 and 3 of your Owner Manual.
Install a comfort guide on a shoulder
belt
1. Pull the elastic cord out from between
the seatback and the interior body to
remove the guide from its storage
clip.
2. Slide the guide under and past the
safety belt (the elastic cord must be
under the belt).
3. Place the guide over the belt and
insert the two edges of the belt into
the slots of the guide. (Be sure that
the belt is not twisted and that it lies
flat. The elastic cord must be under
the belt and the guide on top.)
4. Buckle, position and release the safe-
ty belt as described in Section 1 of
your Owner Manual. Make sure the
belt crosses the passenger’s shoulder.
Storing the Child Comfort Guide
To remove and store the comfort guides,
squeeze the belt edges together so that
you can take them out of the guides.
Slide the guide back on its storage clip
located between the interior body and
the seatback. Storing the comfort guide
properly will prevent possible rattling.
See Section 1 of your Owner Manual.
Rear Door Security Locks
(Crew Cabs)
Crew Cab models are equipped with
rear door security locks that allow you to
lock the rear doors so they cannot be
opened by passengers from the inside.
Choose a child restraint that is appropri-
ate for the child’s age and size (weight
and height).
See Section 1 of your Owner Manual.
