FOLDING REAR SEAT
1. Ensure the rear outboard seat belt tongue isproperly stowed in the rear trim slot next to
the door
1before moving the rear seatback
2in order to prevent the outboard seat belt
from getting caught behind the rear seat-
back. 2. Pull the knob
Aand fold the seatback
down.
WARNING
● Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo
area or on the rear seat when it is in the
fold-down position. Use of these areas
by passengers without proper restraints
could result in serious injury in an acci-
dent or sudden stop. ●
Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or col-
lision, unsecured cargo could cause
personal injury.
● When returning the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched posi-
tion. If they are not completely secured,
passengers may be injured in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.

Center of the rear bench seat
The center seat belt has a connector tongue1
and a seat belt tongue2. Both the connector
tongue and the seat belt tongue must be securely
latched for proper seat belt operation.
WARNING
● Always fasten the connector tongue
and the seat belt in the order shown.
● Always make sure both the connector
tongue and the seat belt tongue are
secured when using the seat belt or

the seat belt or child restraint with only
the seat belt tongue attached. This
could result in serious personal injury in
case of an accident or a sudden stop. Stowing the center seat belt
