FLEXIBLE SEATING
WARNING
.Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the rear seats
when they are in the fold-down
position. In a collision, people
riding in these areas without
proper restraints 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.
. Do not fold down the rear seats
when occupants are in the rear
seat area or any cargo is on the
rear seats.
. Head restraints should be ad-
justed properly as they may pro-
vide significant protection
against injury in an accident. Al-
ways replace and adjust them
properly if they have been re-
moved for any reason.
. If the head restraints are re-
moved for any reason, they
should be securely stored to pre- vent them from causing injury to
passengers or damage to the
vehicle in case of sudden braking
or an accident.
. When returning the seatbacks to
the upright position, be certain
they are completely secured in
the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
. Properly secure all cargo to help
prevent it from sliding or shifting.
Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury.
. When folding the bench seat
seatback down for maximum sto-
rage, make sure the seat base is
in the latched position by rocking
the seat base. If the seat base is
not properly secured, cargo
stored on top of a folded seat-
back may become a projectile
causing personal injury or vehicle
damage.
CAUTION
.When folding the 2nd row seat for
maximum cargo hauling, be sure
that cargo does not contact the
center console of the captain’s
seat (if so equipped) to avoid
possible damage to the console.
. When folding or returning the
seat(s) to the upright position, to
avoid injury to yourself and
others:

WARNING
Head restraint/headrest supplement
the other vehicle safety systems.
They may provide additional protec-
tion against injury in certain rear end
collisions. Adjustable head re-
straints/headrests must be adjusted
properly, as specified in this section.
Check the adjustment after someone
else uses the seat. Do not attach
anything to the head restraint/head-
rest stalks or remove the head re-
straint/headrest. Do not use the seat
if the head restraint/headrest has
been removed. If the head restraint/
headrest was removed, reinstall and
properly adjust the head restraint/
headrest before an occupant uses
the seating position. Failure to follow
these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness of the head restraint/
headrest. This may increase the risk
of serious injury or death in a colli-
sion.
