Dodge 2010 Dakota Automobile User Manual


 
Child Restraint Tether Anchor
The Extended Cab model has one routing strap
located at the bottom of the front passenger
seat side, rear outboard seating position. 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 seatback. When there is a rear seat delete option, the
tether anchorage located on the cab back panel is de-
signed to be used for the front seat center seating
position. The Crew Cab model has three anchorages
located behind each of the rear seating positions (rear left,
rear center, and rear right).
WARNING!
With a child restraint installed in the rear passen-
ger side locations, use care when adjusting the
front seat(s) rearward, to avoid the front seatback
coming in contact with the belted child directly
behind the seat. The child could be injured.
Improper installation can lead to failure of an
infant or child restraint. It could come loose in a
collision. The child could be seriously injured or
killed. Make sure the child restraint tether strap is
always routed through the proper anchor strap
inner loop.
Tether Strap at the Front Passenger Seat (Extended Cab)
1. Route the child restraint tether strap up and over the
front passenger seatback, and under the head restraint.
