After sliding the seat, check to ensure that both sides of the seat are
locked in position. This must be done before the vehicle is put into
motion in order to prevent unintended movement of the seat.
Every time you adjust any seat, check to be sure that it is
properly latched in the lock position of both seat tracks. If the
seat is not properly latched, it could come loose and increase the risk
of severe injury or death in an accident.
The 3rd row bench seat is not removable.
To remove the 2nd row seat(s):

The seat tracks may have grease on
them that could stain your clothing
or vehicle fabric surfaces if care is
not taken when handling the seats.

removing each seat. Refer to the
Adjusting 2nd row seats
