Returning the Seats to the Normal
Seating Position
To return the seat to the normal seating position, do the
following:
1. On extended models, lift the load floor panels and
latch them into the seatback.
{CAUTION:
If the seatback is not locked, it could move
forward in a sudden stop or crash. That could
cause injury to the person sitting there. Always
push and pull on the seatback to be sure it is
locked.
2. Lift the seatback up and push it rearward all the
way. Push and pull on the seatback to make sure
it is locked in place.
3. On regular models, return the headrests to the
upright position.
On extended models, return the headrests from the
stored position to the seatback.
4. Lower the seat cushion until it latches into position.
Pull up on the seat cushion to make sure it is
locked.
{CAUTION:
A safety belt that is improperly routed, not
properly attached, or twisted will not provide
the protection needed in a crash. The person
wearing the belt could be seriously injured.
After raising the rear seatback, always check
to be sure that the safety belts are properly
routed and attached, and are not twisted.
5. Make sure that the safety belt buckles on the
driver’s side seat are accessible to the outboard and
center occupants and are not under the seat
cushions.
