The rear seat of the 4
-
Door Utility or the second seat of
a Suburban may have a 60/40 seat, either side may be
folded down to give you more cargo space.
Before folding, place the latch portion of the center
safety belt in the center armrest. That way, the center
safety belt will be out of the way when the seat is folded
and also will be easily available for passengers to use
when the seat is returned to the passenger position. Also,
make sure that nothing is under or in front of the seat.
When the seat is folded, it will lay flat on the floor.
When folding the seat,
first remove the head
restraints. Push the release
buttons at the bottom of
each head restraint
height
-
adjust post and slide
the head restraint out of the
height
-
adjust tubes.
Set the head restraints aside for now. You will store
them in their proper position after you are done folding
the seat.
To fold the seat, pull up on
the strap loop at the rear of
the outer edge of the seat
cushion. Then, pull the
seat cushion up and fold
it forward.
After folding the seat cushion fully forward, pull the
seatback forward and fold the seatback down until it
is flat.
Then, store the head
restraints by sliding them
into the rear of the seat
cushion. Make sure the
posts go in all the way.
