Make sure all rear shoulder belts are
positioned in front of the rear seat-
back, and the center shoulder belt is
re-positioned in the guide whenever
the seat-back is in its upright position.
Be sure there are no twists in any
shoulder belt.
Remove any items from the seat
before you fold down the seat-back.
Make sure that the folded seat-back
does not press against the front
passenger’s seat, as this could cause
the weight sensors to work
improperly.
Make sure the rear seat armrest is
stored.
If the rear head restraints get caught
on the front seat backs and you
cannot fold down the rear seat-back
fully, you can remove the head
restraints (see page
).
Make sure the removed head
restraints are securely stored.
To lock the seat-back upright, push it
firmly against the trunk panel. Make
sure it is latched in place by pulling
on the top of the seat.
Do not put any heavy items on the
seat-back when it is folded down.
Make sure all items in the trunk, or
items extending through the opening
into the back seat, are secured.
Loose items can fly forward and
cause injury if you have to brake
hard. See
on page
.
Never drive with the seat-back
folded down and the trunk lid open.
