SEATING ARRANGEMENTS
Many different arrangements for passenger
seating or cargo hauling are available as
you will see in the following illustrations. The
second row seats may be removed and the
third row seat may be moved forward to the
second row seating position. The second
and third row seats have an optional fold-
down table-top feature. This offers a variety
of uses for the vehicle when moving or
stopped.
The illustrations shown reflect the different
seating positions available.
Before you begin to arrange the seats in
your vehicle, read all of the cautions and
warnings in this chapter, including the
following section on the removable floor
mats. Also observe any labels that are in
the vehicle.
WARNING
cWhile the vehicle is in motion, pas-
sengers should always be seated in
a forward facing direction in a seat
which is properly secured and ad-
justed. Seat belts should always be
used. Sitting without a seat belt in a
seat that is not properly secured in
one of the locations shown in this
chapter, or in a place without a seat
and seat belt can result in personal
injury in a sudden stop or collision.
cDo not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will
not be against your body. In an acci-
dent, you could be thrown into it and
receive neck or other serious inju-
ries. You could also slide under the
lap belt and receive serious internal
injuries.
cFor the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit
well back in the seat and adjust the
seat belt properly.cIt is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area inside of a vehicle. In a
collision, people riding in these ar-
eas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed.
cDo not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
cBe sure everyone in your vehicle is
in a seat and using a seat belt prop-
erly.
cDo not place hard items such as
coffee mugs or drinking glasses on
the tabletop seats when the vehicle
is moving. Any item can become a
projectile inside a vehicle involved in
a collision. To help prevent personal
injury, never leave loose items on
the fold-down tabletop seats when
the vehicle is moving.

periodically.

SEATS
The normal 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 one passenger in the three-
passenger bench seat would like more leg
room, one of the second row bucket seats
can be removed.

the three-passenger sliding bench seat can
be moved to seating position #2 or #3. This
seating arrangement provides less leg room
for third row passengers, but more cargo
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.
