4. Fold the seatback forward against the floor.
5. Repeat on the other side if desired.
To Raise The Rear Seat
1. Raise the seatback and lock it into place.
NOTE:
If interference from the cargo area prevents the
seatback from fully locking, you will have difficulty
returning the seat to its proper position.
2. Raise the head restraint until it locks into place.
3. Return the seat cushion to its original position.
WARNING!
•
Be certain that the seatback is securely locked
into position. If the seatback is not securely locked
into position the seat will not provide the proper
stability for child seats and/or passengers. An
improperly latched seat could cause serious injury.

WARNING!
•
Do not store items on top of the battery underneath
the seat cushion. The rear seat bottom must not
have any obstruction that prevents it from being in
the fully lowered position, otherwise the bottom may
not lock during frontal impact. If the seat cushion is
not fully lowered, serious injury could occur.

NOTE:
•
Prior to folding the rear seat, it may be necessary to
reposition the front seats.
•
Be sure that the front seats are fully upright and
positioned forward. This will allow the rear seat to
fold down easily.
Folding The Rear Seat
1. Lift the seatback release lever and fold the seat-
back forward.
2. Slowly flip the entire seat forward.
Using The Retention Straps
1. There are two retention straps located on the back
of the rear seat and two corresponding wire loops
located on the back of each B-pillar. Open the hook-
and-loop fastener on the strap and thread through
the wire loop. Fold the hook-and-loop fastener over
to keep the seat in the folded position. This should
be done on both sides.
2. To return the seat to its normal upright position,
reverse these steps.
