2007 CHEVROLET UPLANDER center console

Head Restraints
Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the
restraint is at the same height as the top of
the occupant’s head. This position reduces the
chance of a neck injury in a crash.
The height of the head restraints can be adjusted
on the rst and second row seats. Pull the
head restraint up or push it down to adjust it.
The head restraints on the third row seat cannot
be adjusted.
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 183. 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 32.
Bucket Seats
Your vehicle may have bucket seats in the second
row. These seats can be adjusted several
different ways.

wind can catch it as you drive along. This
can cause you to lose control. What you
are carrying could be violently torn off,
and this could cause you or other drivers
to have a collision, and of course damage
your vehicle. You may be able to carry
something like this inside. But, never
carry something longer or wider than the
luggage carrier on top of your vehicle.
If you have the luggage carrier, you can load
things on top of your vehicle. Crossrails are not
standard on this vehicle and must be purchased at
your dealer.

Passenger Compartment Air Filter
Passenger compartment air, both outside and
recirculated air, is routed through a passenger
compartment lter. The lter removes most
particles from the air, including dust particles.
Reductions in airow, which may occur more
quickly in dusty areas, indicate that the lter needs
to be replaced early. For how often to change
the air lter, seeScheduled Maintenance on
page 539.The access panel for the passenger compartment
air lter is located in the back of the glove box.
To replace the lter, do the following:
