To return the seat to a sitting position, fold the seatback
upright until it locks and push the seat rearward until the
track locks.

used during the automatic returning of the seat to its
sitting position.
60/40 SPLIT FOLDING REAR SEAT —
F
OUR DOOR MODELS
To provide additional storage area, each rear seat can be
folded flat to allow for extended cargo space.
NOTE:
 Be sure that the front seats are fully upright and posi -
tioned forward. This will allow the rear seat to fold down
easily.
 The center head restraints must be in the lowest posi-
tion to avoid contact with the center console when
folding the seat.
To Fold Down The Rear Seat
There are two release levers located on each upper
outboard side of the rear seat. The larger of the two
release levers folds down the seat and the head restraint
simultaneously. The smaller lever folds down the head
restraint independently for improved visibility.
To fold the seat, lift upward on the large release lever and
slowly fold down the seatback. The head restraint will fold
automatically with the seat when this lever is pulled.

Seatback Release Lever

NOTE:You may experience deformation in the seat cushion from
the seat belt buckles if the seats are left folded for an
extended period of time. This is normal. By simply
unfolding the seats to the open position, the seat cushion
will return to its normal shape over time.
To Raise The Rear Seat
Raise the seatback and lock it into place. Then, raise the
head restraint until it locks into place. If interference from
the cargo area prevents the seatback from fully locking,
you will have difficulty returning the seat to its proper
position.

WO DOOR MODELS
NOTE:
 Prior to folding the rear seat, it may be necessary to
reposition the front seats.
 Be sure that the front seats are fully upright and posi -
tioned 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.
WARNING!
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.

HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of injury by
restricting head movement in the event of a rear impact.
Head restraints should be adjusted so that the top of the
head restraint is located above the top of your ear.
WARNING!
 Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes,
spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus -
tion or other physical condition must exercise care
when using the seat heater. It may cause burns even
at low temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time.
 Do not place anything on the seat or seatback that
insulates against heat, such as a blanket or cushion.
This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in
a seat that has been overheated could cause serious
burns due to the increased surface temperature of
the seat.
WARNING!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.
WARNING!
All occupants, including the driver, should not
operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat until the
head restraints are placed in their proper positions in
order to minimize the risk of neck injury in the event
of a crash.
 Head restraints should never be adjusted 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 of a colli -
sion.
