60/40 Split Folding Rear Seat With
Fold-Flat Feature
To provide additional storage area, each rear
seat can be folded flat. This allows for ex-
tended cargo space and still maintains some
rear seating room.NOTE:
Prior to folding the rear seat, it may be
necessary to position the front seat to its
mid-track position. Also, be sure that the
front seats are fully upright and positioned
forward. This will allow the rear seat to fold
down easily.
WARNING!
• It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle.
In a collision, people riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a
seat and using a seat belt properly.

1. Pull the seatback release lever located on
either side of the upper outer edge of the
seat.
2. Fold that side of the rear seatback com-
pletely forward.To Raise The Rear Seat
NOTE:
If interference from the cargo area prevents
the seatback from fully locking, you will have
difficulty returning the seat to its proper po-
sition.
Raise the seatback and lock it into place.
The release lever will show a red indicator
while in the unlocked position. Once the seat
is locked in, the red indicator will no longer
be visible.
WARNING!
Be certain that the seatback is securely
locked into position. If the seatback is not
securely locked into position the seat will
not provide the proper stability for child
seats and/or passengers. An improperly
latched seat could cause serious injury.

are placed in their proper positions in
order to minimize the risk of neck injury
in the event of a crash.

justed while the vehicle is in motion.
Driving a vehicle with the head restraints
improperly adjusted or removed could
cause serious injury or death in the event
