To raise the seatback, do the following:
1. Lift the recliner lever, located on the outboard
side of the seat, up fully and push up on the
seatback.
2. Continue raising the seatback until the
seatback re-engages.
{CAUTION:
If the seatback is not locked, it could
move forward in a sudden stop or crash.
That could cause injury to the person
sitting there. Always push and pull on
the seatback to be sure it is locked.
3. Push and pull on the seatback to make sure it
is locked in place.
The recliner lever is also used to recline the
seatback while a passenger is seated. SeeManual
Reclining Seatbacks on page 12.
Rear Seats
Split Folding Rear Seat
The rear split bench seatbacks have three
available positions — folded forward, upright, or
partially reclined. Each of the rear seatbacks
can be moved to any of the three positions
independent of the other seatback position.
{CAUTION:
A safety belt that is improperly routed,
not properly attached, or twisted will not
provide the protection needed in a crash.
The person wearing the belt could be
seriously injured. After raising the rear
seatback, always check to be sure that
the safety belts are properly routed and
attached, and are not twisted.

belts still fastened may cause damage to the

the seatbelts are unbuckled and the front seats
are not reclined.
{CAUTION:
If the seatback is not locked, it could
move forward in a sudden stop or crash.
That could cause injury to the person
sitting there. Always push and pull on
the seatback to be sure it is locked.Lift the lever on the upper back corner of the
seatback to move it to the desired position and
then release it. Push and pull on the seatback to
be sure it is locked in place.

If you put things inside your vehicle — like
suitcases, tools, packages, or anything else — they
will go as fast as the vehicle goes. If you have to
stop or turn quickly, or if there is a crash, they will
keep going.
{CAUTION:
Things you put inside your vehicle can
strike and injure people in a sudden stop
or turn, or in a crash.
Put things in the cargo area of your
vehicle. Try to spread the weight
evenly.
Never stack heavier things, like
suitcases, inside the vehicle so that
some of them are above the tops of
the seats.
Do not leave an unsecured child
restraint in your vehicle.
When you carry something inside the
vehicle, secure it whenever you can.
Do not leave a seat folded down
unless you need to.
