Folding or Reclining the Seatbacks
{
CAUTION:
If the seatback is not 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.
The seatback on a bucket seat can be either folded
forward or reclined. The following explains how to use
either the nylon strap or the lever to fold or recline
the seatback.
Nylon Strap
To fold the seatback forward, pull the nylon strap
located on the rear of the seat or lift up on the recliner
lever located on the front of the seatback. The
seatback will lock into place.
To raise a seatback, pull the nylon strap or lift the
recliner lever while raising the seatback until it locks
upright. Push and pull on the seatback to check that
it is locked into place.
