3-10 Seats and Restraints
Rear Seats
The rear seatbacks can be folded to
provide more cargo space and
access to the midgate. See
Midgate
® on page 2‑9.
To fold the seatback:
1. Push the rear seat headrests all
the way down.
2. Pull the loop in the crease where
the seatback and seat cushion
meet to release the seat
cushion. Tilt the seat cushion
forward toward the front of the
vehicle.
Notice: 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.
3. Fold the seatback forward until it
is flat. If necessary, move the
front seats forward slightly to
allow the seatback to fold
completely.
4. Repeat the procedure for the
other seatback, if desired.
To return the seats to the normal
position, lift the seatback up and
fold the seat cushion down.

WARNING
A safety belt that is improperly
routed, not properly attached,
or twisted will not provide the
protection needed in a crash. The
person wearing the belt could be
seriously injured. After raising the
rear seatback, always check to be
sure that the safety belts are
properly routed and attached, and
are not twisted.
