possible.
2. Push the head restraint release
button and move the head restraint
fully down.
3. Put the seatback in the most
upright position.
4. Pull the strap located on the back of the seat to fold the front
passenger seatback.
5. Without releasing the pull strap, push the seatback forward.
WARNING: Cover sharp edges on the load and properly secure
the load to prevent injury to occupants from shifting load during
sudden stops.
WARNING: Before returning the seatback to its original
position, make sure that cargo or any objects are not trapped
behind the seatback. After returning the seatback to its original
position, pull on the seatback to ensure that it has fully latched. An
unlatched seat may become dangerous in the event of a sudden stop or
collision.
