WARNING
● If you fold the front passenger’s seat-
back flat forward to carry longer ob-
jects, be sure this cargo is properly se-
cured and not near an air bag. In a crash,
an inflating air bag might force that
object toward a person. This could
cause severe injury or even death. Se-
cure objects away from the area in
which an air bag would inflate. See
“Precautions on supplemental restraint
system” later in this section.
● Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo
area or on the front passenger’s seat
when it is in the fold-down position. Use
of these areas by passengers could re-
sult in serious injury in an accident or
sudden stop.

To fold the 2nd row bench seat flat for maximum
cargo hauling:
᭺
1 Disconnect and secure the center seat belt
and tongues into the retractor base. See
“Stowing the center seat belt” later in this
section. Then properly stow the outboard
seat belts in the seat belt hooks before fold-
ing down the rear seats. See “Seat belt
hook” in this section for more information.
The head restraint/headrest must be re-
moved before folding down the seatbacks.
To remove the head restraint/headrest, push
and hold the lock knob while moving the
head restraint/headrest in an upward direc-
tion. Store the head restraint/headrest prop-
erly so it is not loose in the vehicle.
Pull the strap forward, located in the center
of each seat cushion, and fold each seat
cushion toward the front of the vehicle.
