• Place the child upright in the seat with their back firmly against the seatback.
• Grasp the latch plate and pull out the seat belt.
• Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to allow the seat belt to goaround the child’s lap.
NOTE: The lap portion of the seat belt should be low on the hips and as snug as
possible.
• Once the seat belt is long enough to fit properly, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.”
• To remove the slack from the lap belt, pull upward on the shoulder portion of the seat belt and release by pushing the red button on the buckle.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Each vehicle, except commercial cargo vehicles, is equipped with the child restraintanchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren.
• Two LATCH child restraint anchorage systems are installed on all second-row seats and in the center position on all third row fold-in-floor seats.
• Second-row seats also feature tether strap anchorages, located in the rear surface of the seatback.
• In addition, all third row fold-in-floor seats are equipped with a child restraint tether anchor at the center seating position.
Installing The Lower Attachments:
• The vehicle lower anchorages are round bars located at the rear of the seatcushion where it meets the seatback.
• Loosen the adjusters on the lower childrestraint attachment straps to ease the
installation.
NOTE: It is recommended to loosen the top
tether strap and route it loosely prior to
securing the lower anchors so the top tether
strap is not trapped between the vehicle seat
and child restraint.
• Attach the lower child restraint attachment straps to the vehicle’s lower anchor bars. Ensure that the lower attachment strap is firmly engaged and that the hook is
secure.
• Tighten the lower attachment strap while firmly pushing the child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle seat. Remove all slack in the lower
attachment straps.

GETTING STARTED
To Remove The Seats
• Remove any obstructions from the floor behind the seat, and stow the third rowseat.
• Pull up on the release bar located at the bottom front edge of the swivel seat.
• From behind the seat, lift up on the rear of the seat cushion while pulling the seat in a rearward direction.
• Remove the seat from the vehicle through the liftgate. Rollers are part of the seat frame and will ease the removal process.
• Lower the release handle located at the bottom front edge of the seat.
THIRD ROW POWER RECLINER
• The power recline feature, located on the side of the seat cushion, adjusts the seatback angle forward/rearward for occupant comfort.
Third Row Power Seat Switch
• A one-touch power folding seat switch islocated in the left rear trim panel as part
of a switch bank.
• Left and right third row seats can be folded individually or together. The third row
power folding seats adjust to multiple
positions.
• The switch is only functional when the liftgate is open and the vehicle is in PARK.
NOTE:
• Disconnect the center shoulder belt from the small buckle and lower the head restraints before attempting to fold/stow the power third row seats.
• To abort seat operation while the seat is in motion, press a different seat position selector switch to stop the seat. Once the seat stops moving, then the desired
position can be selected.
• The third row power seat system includes obstacle detection for safe operation. When the system detects an obstacle, the motors will stop and reverse the motion
a short distance to move the seat away from the obstacle. Should this occur,
remove the obstacle and press the button again for the desired position.
• Refer to your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for manual third row seat folding instructions.
