Replacing the Captain’s Chairs
CAUTION:
If the seatback isn’t locked, it could move
forward in a sudden stop or crash. That could
cause injury to the person sitting there. Always
press rearward on the seatback to be sure it
is locked.
CAUTION:
A seat that isn’t locked into place properly can
move around in a collision or sudden stop. People
in the vehicle could be injured. Be sure to lock
the seat into place properly when installing it.
CAUTION:
A safety belt that is improperly routed, not
properly attached, or twisted won’t provide
the protection needed in a crash. The person
wearing the belt could be seriously injured.
After installing the seat, always check to be
sure that the safety belts are properly routed
and attached, and are not twisted.
Don’t put the seats in so they face rearward because they
won’t latch that way. For the second row, if you want
more storage room behind the seat, adjust the seat by
sliding it forward.
The captain’s chairs have seat position labels, located on
the back of the seat, showing where the seat must go.
Follow that diagram. The seat must be placed in the
proper location for the legs to attach correctly.
