Folding the Seatback
Caution
Folding a rear seat with the safety
belts still fastened may cause
damage to the seat or the safety
belts. Always unbuckle the safety
belts and return them to their
normal stowed position before
folding a rear seat.
If equipped, either side of the
seatback can be folded for more
cargo space. Fold a seatback only
when the vehicle is not moving.
To fold the seatback:
1. Disconnect the rear safety belt
mini-latch using a key in the
slot on the mini-buckle, and let
the belt retract.
2. Unlock the seatback using the
vehicle key in the cylinder.
Pull the lever on top of the
seatback toward you to release
the seatback.
A red tab near the seatback
lever raises when the seatback
is released.
3. Fold the seatback forward.
Repeat Steps 2 3 to fold the
other seatback, if desired.
Raising the Seatback
Warning
If either seatback is not locked, it
could move forward in a sudden
stop or crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting there.
Always push and pull on the
seatbacks to be sure they are
locked.
