by
I
pushing rearward on
the latch, and
fold
them out to cover the
rear seat footwell.
To return the seat to
the passenger position,
lift the load floor
panels and latch them
into the seatback.
Then, lift the seatback up and push rearward
until it latches. Lower the seat
cushion until it latches
in position.
After returning the seat to the passenger position, pull forward
on the
seatback and
up on the seat cushion handle to make sure the seat is locked in
place. Also, pull the safety belt buckles out of the seat cushion pockets, so
they will be available for rear seat passengers to use.

Then, fold the
seatback forward into
the seat cushion.
To unlatch the seat
from
the floor, pull up
on the center release
handle
at the rear of
the seat and lift the
rear of the seat up, out
of the floor.

the seat to the forward position and set it down, with the latches at the
bottom
of the seat over the hooks in the floor. Pull up on the center release
handle and let the seat drop into place. Release the handle
to let the seat
latch close and make sure it locks
into place. Then, move the seatback

1. Close and lock the door.
2. Adjust the seat (to see how, see “Seats” in the Index) so you can sit up
straight.

3. Pick up the latch plate and pull the belt across you. (On some models,
you may hear a clicking sound as the belt is pulled out. The clicking
sound is the shoulder belt tension feature operating properly.) Don’t
let
the belt get twisted.
4. Push the latch plate into the buckle until it clicks. Pull up on the latch
plate
to make sure it is secure.
If the belt isn’t long enough, see “Safety Belt Extender’’ at the end of
this section.
Make sure the release button on the buckle
is positioned so you would be
able
to unbuckle the safety belt quickly if you ever had to.
The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug on the hips, just
touching the thighs.
In a crash, this applies force to the strong pelvic bones.
And you’d be less likely to slide under the lap belt. If
you slid under it, the
belt would apply force
at your abdomen. This could cause serious or even
fatal injuries. The shoulder belt should go over the shoulder and across the
chest.
These parts of the body are best able to take belt restraining forces.
The safety belt locks
if there’s a sudden stop or a crash.

Safety Belt Use During Pregnancy
Safety belts work for everyone, including pregnant women. Like all
occupants, they are more likely to be seriously injured
if they don’t wear
safety belts.
A pregnant woman
should wear a
lap-shoulder belt, and
the lap portion should
be worn
as low as
possible throughout
the pregnancy.
The best
way to protect the fetus is to protect the mother. When a safety belt
is worn properly, it’s more likely that the fetus won’t be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to making safety belts effective
is
wearing them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the same way as the driver’s
safety belt. See “Driver Position,” earlier
in this part.
When the lap portion
of the belt is pulled out all the way, it will lock. If it
does, let it go back all the way and start again.

3, Pick up the latch plate, and run the lap and shoulder portions of the
vehicle’s safety belt through or around the restraint. The child restraint

behind the child restraint.

the lap belt all the
way
out of the
