Removing the Rear Seat Cushion
Notice:If, when removing or reinstalling the rear
seat, you do not do it carefully, you could damage the
fuse center. Avoid contact between the rear seat and
the fuse center whenever you remove or reinstall the
rear seat.
To remove the rear seat cushion, do the following:
1. Pull up on the front of the cushion to release the
front hooks.
2. Pull the cushion up and out toward the front of
the vehicle.To reinstall the rear seat cushion, do the following:
{CAUTION:
A safety belt that isn’t properly routed through
the seat cushion or is twisted won’t provide the
protection needed in a crash. If the safety belt
hasn’t been routed through the seat cushion
at all, it won’t be there to work for the next
passenger. The person sitting in that position
could be badly injured. After reinstalling the
seat cushion, always check to be sure that the
safety belts are properly routed and are not
twisted.

1. Buckle the center passenger position safety belt,
then route the safety belts through the proper slots
in the seat cushion. Do not let the safety belts
get twisted.

seatback so the rear locating guides hook into
the wire loops on the back frame.
