2006 CHEVROLET UPLANDER center console

Head Restraints
Adjust your head restraint so that the top of the restraint
is closest to the top of your head. This position
reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash.
The head restraints are adjustable on the rst and
second row seats. They are not adjustable on the
third row seat, if equipped. To adjust a head restraint,
slide it up or down.
Rear Seats
Rear Seat Operation
The rear seats in your vehicle have levers and straps
used to adjust, remove, and reinstall the seats. By using
the levers and straps in the correct order, you can
easily remove the seats from the vehicle. If your vehicle
has second row captain chairs with airbags, the seats
cannot be removed.
When reinstalling the seats, make sure the seats are in
the proper positions.
If your vehicle has a second row center console, it can
be removed. SeeSecond Row Center Console on
page 2-51. Do not put a seat in the center position
because the safety belt cannot be worn properly in this
position. SeeSafety Belts: They Are for Everyone
on page 1-21.
