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.
Folding Seatbacks
The seatbacks on the second
row seats fold forward to
put items behind the left and
right seats. Lift the lever
and fold the seatback
forward. The seatback will
lock into place when you
push it back to the
upright position.
Rear Seats
Seat Controls
The rear seats in your vehicle have levers and straps
used to adjust, remove and replace the seats. By using
the levers and straps, in the correct order, you can easily
remove the seats from your vehicle.
Floor Seat Pin Diagram
When you replace the seats in the vehicle, be sure to
follow the label on the back of the seat for proper
location. Follow the diagram above when the text in this
manual tells you what sets of floor cups to use for
each seat.

Replacing the Split Bench Sections
Don't put the sections of the bench seat in so they face
rearward because they won't latch that way. If you want
more storage room behind the seat, adjust each section
by sliding it forward.
The split benches have seat position labels, located on
the back of each seat, showing where the seat must go.
Follow that diagram.

The left (40) section of the 40/60 split bench uses the
A and B sets of floor cups.

The right (60) section of the 40/60 split bench uses
the C and D sets of floor cups.

The left section of the 50/50 split bench uses the G
and H sets of floor cups.

The right section of the 50/50 split bench uses the I
and J sets of floor cups.
See ªSeat Controlsº in the beginning of this section for
more details. The seat must be placed in the proper
location for the legs to attach correctly.
Make sure the seat is in the full rear position before
beginning this procedure.
1. Squeeze the angled bar toward the solid crossbar
while placing the front hooks of the bench seat onto
the front two floor pins.
