When one passenger in the three-
passenger bench seat would like more leg
room, one of the second row bucket seats
can be removed.When more cargo area room is necessary,
the three-passenger sliding bench seat can
be moved to seating position #2. This seat-
ing arrangement provides less leg room for
third row passengers, but more cargo area
room.If passengers in the three-passenger bench
seat would like more leg room, both second
row bucket seats can be removed.The
floor area should never be used by pas-
sengers. Passengers should always be
properly restrained by seat belts.
