To lower the rear seatback, pull on the seat tab
located on the outboard side of the seatback
cushion and fold the seatback down. This allows
you direct access to the trunk.
To raise the rear seatback, follow these steps:
1. Raise the seatback up and make sure it latches.
2. Push and pull on the seatback to be sure it is
locked in position.
3. Make sure that the safety belts are properly
stowed over the seatback in all three positions.
{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.
{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.
When the seat is not in use, it should be kept in
the upright locked position.
