Seats and Seat Controls
This section tells you about the seats -- how to adjust
them and fold them up and down. It also tells you about
reclining front seatbacks and head restraints.
Manual Front Seat
CAUTION:
You can lose control of the vehicle if you try to
adjust a manual driver's seat while the vehicle is
moving. The sudden movement could startle and
confuse you, or make you push a pedal when you
don't want to. Adjust the driver's seat only when
the vehicle is not moving.
If your vehicle has a manual
bucket, split bench or full
bench seat, you can adjust it
with this lever at the front
of the seat.
Slide the lever at the front of the seat toward the
passenger's side to unlock it. Using your body, slide the
seat to where you want it. Then, release the lever and try
to move the seat with your body to make sure the seat is
locked into place.

1-4 Heated Front Seats (If Equipped)
The control for the driver's side heated seat is located on
the left side of the seat. The control for the right front
passenger is located on the right side of the passenger's
seat. Move the switch forward to MED or HIGH
temperature to turn on the heating elements in the seat.
The right front passenger's safety belt must be buckled
before the heating elements in that seat will operate.
To turn the heated seats off, move the switch rearward
to OFF.
Reclining Front Seatbacks
To adjust the seatback, move the lever rearward.
Release the lever to lock the seatback where you want it.
Move the lever again rearward and the seatback will go
to an upright position.

1-6 Head Restraints
Slide the head restraint up or down so that the top of the
restraint is closest to the top of your ears. This position
reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash.
Seatback Latches (2-Door Utility)
CAUTION:
If the seatback isn't locked, it could move
forward in a sudden stop or crash. That could
cause injury to the person sitting there. Always
press rearward on the seatback to be sure it is
locked.
The front seatback folds forward to let you access the
rear of the vehicle.
To fold a seatback forward,
pull this lever forward and
tilt the seatback forward.
To return the seatback to the upright position, just push
the seatback rearward until it latches.
After returning the seatback to its upright position, pull
the seatback forward to make sure it is locked.

1-7 Easy Entry Seat (2-Door Utility)
CAUTION:
If any easy entry seat isn't locked, it can move. In
a sudden stop or crash, the person sitting there
could be injured. And, even if there is no crash or
sudden stop, a driver sitting in an unlocked easy
entry seat could be startled by the sudden
movement and hit the wrong control or pedal,
causing an accident. After you've used it, be sure
to push rearward on any easy entry seat to be
sure it is locked.
The driver and passenger front bucket seat and the 60/40
split bench seat of your vehicle have an easy entry
feature. This makes it easy to get in and out of the
rear seat. On vehicles equipped with the power driver's
seat, only the passenger's front seat will have the easy
entry feature.
To operate the seat, pull
forward on the top of the
lever located at the side of
the seatback, and tilt the
seatback forward toward
the front of the vehicle.
When you do, the seat bottom will release. Just pull or
push the seat forward until it stops.
To return the seat to its regular position, return the
seatback to its upright position, then push the whole seat
rearward until it latches.
After returning the seat to its regular position, try to
move the seat with your body, to make sure the seat is
locked into place.

To fold the seat, pull on the release handle at the bottom
of the seat cushion marked RELEASE.When you release the seat cushion, the seatback is
automatically released. Pull the loop on the seatback
forward and fold the seatback onto the seat cushion.
To return the seat to the passenger position, just lift up
on the seatback and push it rearward until it latches.
After returning the seat to the passenger position, pull
forward on the seatback to make sure it is locked into
place. Also, return the safety belts and head restraints to
their original positions, so they will be available for rear
seat passengers to use.

To release the easy entry second seat, lift up on the
top of the release lever with your foot. Push the top
of the seatback forward and tilt it toward the front of
the vehicle.
To return the seat to its regular position, return the
seatback to its upright position, then push the whole seat
rearward until it latches.
After returning the seat to its regular position, try to
move the seat with your body, to make sure the seat is
locked into place.Removing the Rear (Suburban Third Seat)
If your vehicle has a third seat, it can be taken out for
more cargo space.

position safety belts from the seat frame.
To unlatch the safety belt,

To remove the seat, fully open the rear load doors and
