WARNING
When you return the rear seatback to its upright position after being
folded down:
Be careful not to damage the seat
belt webbing or buckle. Do not
allow the seat belt webbing or
buckle to get caught or pinched in
the rear seat. Ensure that the seat-
back is completely locked into its
upright position by pushing on the
top of the seatback. Otherwise, in
an accident or sudden stop, the
seat could fold down and allow
cargo to enter the passenger com-
partment, which could result in
serious injury or death.
CAUTION - Damaging rear
seat belt buckles
When you fold the rear (2nd and/or 3rd row) seatback, insert the bucklein the pocket between the rear seat-back and cushion. Doing so can
prevent the buckle from being dam- aged by the rear seatback.
OUN026140
WARNING - 3rd row seat
The headrest on the 3rd row seat
should be adjusted so the middle ofthe headrest is at the same height
of the top of the occupant's eyes.
If the tailgate is pushed down to
close it when a passenger's head is
not against a properly adjusted
headrest or a tall person is seated,
the tailgate may hit the occupant's
head, which could cause injury.
WARNING - Uprighting seat
When you return the seatback to its
upright position, hold the seatback
and return it slowly. If the seatback
is returned without holding it, the
back of the seat could spring for-
ward resulting in injury caused by
being struck by the seatback.

2. Extend the latch plate tongue of the lap belt.
3. Route the lap belt through the restraint according to the restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions.
4. Buckle the seat belt and adjust the lap belt for a snug hold on the child
restraint by pulling on the loose end of
the belt. After installation of the child
restraint system, try to move it in all
directions to be sure the child restraintsystem is securely installed.
WARNING - Child seat installation
A child can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if the child
restraint is not properly anchored
to the vehicle and the child is not
properly restrained in the child
restraint. Before installing the
child restraint system, read the
instructions supplied by the child
restraint system manufacturer.
If the seat belt does not operate as described in this section, have
the system checked immediately

shall be readjusted or entirely
removed.
