Passenger Folding Seatback
Your vehicle has a front passenger seat that folds flat.
{
WARNING:
If you fold the seatback forward to carry longer
objects, such as skis, be sure any such cargo is
not near an airbag. In a crash, an inflating airbag
might force that object toward a person. This
could cause severe injury or even death. Secure
objects away from the area in which an airbag
would inflate. For more information, see
Where
Are the Airbags? on page 2 ‑ 63 and Loading the
Vehicle on page 5 ‑ 24 .
{
WARNING:
Things you put on this seatback can strike and
injure people in a sudden stop or turn, or in a
crash. Remove or secure all items before driving.
To fold the seatback, do the following:
1. Move the front passenger seat rearward to ensure
there is enough room to fold the seatback forward.
See
Manual Seats on page 2 ‑ 4 for more
information. The head restraint may need to be
removed if the seat is not able to be moved fully
rearward. If removing the head restraint, store it so
that it will not move while the vehicle is in motion.
2. Make sure that the seatback is in an upright
position. Use the recliner lever located on the
outboard side of the seat to move the seatback
to the upright position.
