FLOOR MAT POSITIONING AID
Positioning pins are attached to three of the
floor mats. The cargo mat and front mats do
not have pins. However, the front floor mats
each have a grommet which is placed overthe floor mat positioning brackets located at
the base of the front seats.
Push the positioning pins into the seat
tracks to ensure correct installation, then
straighten the mats as necessary.
The step mat has holes in addition to pins.
When the mats are arranged properly, the
positioning pins of the two mats on either
side of the step mat should fit through the
holes in the step mat and into the seat track.
WARNING

seat unless it is in a normal riding
arrangement and the seat belts are

unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.cDo not allow people to ride in any
area of the vehicle that is not

structions in this section could re-
sult in serious personal injury in an

WITH SECOND ROW BENCH
SEAT
The most common seating arrangement for
seven passengers is with the three-
passenger bench seat in seating position
#1. This provides more leg room for the
passengers sitting in the third row.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.The fold-down tabletop seats in the second
and third rows provide a surface for eating
or playing games on long trips.
