Unfolding the Seat
To unfold the rear seat, pull the
seat unit down until it locks into
place.
The seatback cannot be raised to
the upright position unless the
seat is secured to the floor.
To raise the seatback, lift it up and
push it until it locks into place.
Push and pull on the seatback to
check that it is locked into place.
CAUTION
If the seatback isn't locked, it
could move forward in a
sudden stop or crash. You or
others may be injured. Always
press rearward on the seatback
to be sure it is locked in place.

Check to be sure that the safety
belts are properly routed and are
not twisted.
CAUTION
A safety belt that is twisted or
improperly attached or routed
won't provide the protection
needed in a crash. After raising
a rear seatback, always make
sure that the safety belts are
not twisted and that they are
properly attached and routed.
EASY ENTRY SEAT
The second row seats in your
vehicle can be folded forward.
Use this feature for exiting and
entering third row seats.
Before folding a seat, always make
sure that there is nothing under or
in front of the seat.
Clear all items off the seat.
NOTICE
Damage to the rear seat or
safety belts can occur if the seat
is folded with the safety belts
fastened.
Before folding a seat, unbuckle
the safety belts and return
them to their normal stowed
positions.
