Installing the Third Row Seat
{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 installing the seat,
always check to be sure that the safety
belts are properly routed and attached,
and are not twisted.
Do not put the third row seat in so it faces
rearward because it will not latch that way. The
seat has to go in before the hideaway rear storage
bins. See Hideaway Rear Storage Bins on
page 174 for more information.
Notice: 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.
For ease of installing the seat, put the seat in the
folded position before beginning this procedure.
1. From the rear of the vehicle, place the
front hooks of the seat onto the front floor pins
in the third row. To do this, the seat will
need to be angled approximately 8-10 inches
(20–25 cm) from the floor so the front
hooks clear the rear floor pins and rear floor
cups. Use the release handle to guide the seat
into place.
If the front hooks are not attached correctly,
the rear latches will not attach to the rear set of
floor pins.
2. Firmly push the rear latches into the rear floor
pins by pushing down on the rear of the seat.
