Do not put the stowable seat in so it faces rearward
because it will not latch that way. The stowable seat has to
go in before the convenience center. See “Convenience
Center” in the Index for more information.
The stowable seat has seat position labels, located on the
back of the seat, showing where the seat must go.
Follow the floor pin diagram. Use the front floor pins of
the floor cups and the rear floor cups in the third row.
The seat must be placed in the proper location for the
legs to attach correctly.
Make sure the seat is in its upright position before
beginning this procedure.
1. Place the front hooks of the seat onto the front floor
pins in the third row. To do this, the seat will need to
be angled so the front hooks clear the floor pins.
If the front legs are not attached correctly, the rear
legs will not attach to the rear set of floor pins.
2. Firmly push the rear hooks into the rear floor pins by
pushing down on the rear of the seat.
3. Try to raise the seat to make sure that it is
locked down.
4. Push and pull on the seatback to make sure that it is
locked into place.
Safety Belts: They’re for Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to use safety belts
properly. It also tells you some things you should not do
with safety belts.
And it explains the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS), or air bag system.
CAUTION:
Don’t let anyone ride where he or she can’t wear
a safety belt properly. If you are in a crash and
you’re not wearing a safety belt, your injuries
can be much worse. You can hit things inside the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be seriously
injured or killed. In the same crash, you might
not be if you are buckled up. Always fasten your
safety belt, and check that your passengers’ belts
are fastened properly too.
