Rear Seat Operation (Split Bench)
Folding Rear Seat
On a vehicle with a second row 60/40 split seat
either side of the rear seat may be folded for
added cargo space.
Notice: Folding a rear seat with the safety
belts still fastened may cause damage to the
seat or the safety belts. Always unbuckle
the safety belts and return them to their normal
stowed position before folding a rear seat.
Make sure that nothing is on the seat.
To fold the seat, slowly pull the seat cushion up.
To return the seat to the normal seating position,
slowly pull the seat cushion down.
{
CAUTION:
A safety belt that is improperly routed,
not properly attached, or twisted will not
provide the protection needed in a crash.
The person wearing the belt could be
seriously injured. After raising the rear
seatback, always check to be sure that the
safety belts are properly routed and
attached, and are not twisted.
Make sure that the safety belt buckles on the
driver’s side seatback are accessible to the
outboard and center occupant and are not under
the seat cushions.
