Second Row Bench Seat — If Equipped
SECOND ROW BENCH SEAT FORWARD/REAR-
WARD ADJUSTMENT
Lift up on the adjusting bar located at the front of
the seat near the floor and release it when the seat
is at the desired position. Then, using body
pressure, move forward and rearward on the seat
to be sure that the seat adjusters have latched.
Rear Seat Adjustment Bar
SECOND ROW BENCH SEAT RECLINE ADJUSTMENT
To recline, lean forward slightly and lift the lever
located on the outboard side of the seat. Then,
push the seat rearward to the desired position and
release the lever. To return the seatback to its
normal position, lean forward and lift the lever. To
ensure the seatback is latched, use body pressure
to lean forward and rearward.
Rear Seat Recline Lever
WARNING!
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that
the shoulder belt is no longer resting against
your chest. In a collision you could slide under
the seat belt, which could result in serious injury
or death.
SECOND ROW BENCH FOLD FLAT SEAT
To provide additional storage area, each rear seat
can be folded flat. This allows for extended cargo
space and still maintains some rear seating room.
NOTE:
Prior to folding the rear seat, it may be necessary
to position the front seat to its mid-track position.
Also, be sure that the front seats are fully upright
and positioned forward. This will allow the rear seat
to fold down easily.
To lower the seatback, pull upward on the recline
lever located on the outboard side of the seat, and
let the seatback fold forward automatically.
Second Row Bench Seat Folded Flat
To raise the seatback, fold the seatback up into its
original position and lock it into place.
WARNING!
Be certain that the seatback is securely locked
into position. If the seatback is not securely
locked into position the seat will not provide the
proper stability for child seats and/or
passengers. An improperly latched seat could
cause serious injury.
