WARNING:
Always return the seat to the fully latched position
before operating the vehicle.
Returning the seat to the upright position
Note
: To return the seat from its tumbled position to its upright
position, its rear legs should first be latched to the floor by dumping the
seat down into position. The interlock mechanism will not allow the
release of the seatback until the seat’s rear legs are fully latched to the
floor. Once the rear legs are fully latched, the interlock will release the
seatback, and it can then be returned to the upright position.
To return the seat to a seating position:
1. Push the seat down and latch to
the floor with a moderate amount of
effort and speed.
2. Make sure the seat is latched to
the floor.
3. Bring the seat back to an upright
position. The seatback should lock
into position.
Note
: If the seat back will not
return to the upright position,
tumble the seat again and re-latch it to the floor. Be sure that cargo or
other objects are not trapped underneath the seatback.
4. Lift up on the head restraint until
it locks into its original position.
