Caution
Folding a rear seat with the safety
belts still fastened may cause
damage to the seat or the safety
belts. Always unbuckle the safety
belts and return them to their
normal stowed position before
folding a rear seat.
To fold the seatback:
1. Unbuckle the rear safety belts
and move the front seatbacks to
the upright position. See
Reclining Seatbacks on
page 3-5.
2. Make sure that there is nothing
under, in front of, or on the seat.
3. Lift the lever on the top of the
seatback. A tab near the
seatback lever raises when the
seatback is unlocked.
4. Fold the seatback forward. A tab
near the seatback lever retracts
when the seatback is locked in
place.
Keep the seatback in the upright,
locked position when not in use.

Warning
If either 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
seatbacks to be sure they are
locked.
{
Warning
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.
