Rear Seats Split Folding Rear Seat Your vehicle may have a split folding rear seat. A split folding rear seat allows you to carry long cargo by folding down part or all of the rear seat. Before you can fold the rear seatback, you need to unlatch the center seatbelt buckle. Use the following steps to lower one or both of the rear seatbacks: 1. Insert a tool with a small tip into the slot as shown to unlatch the seatbelt buckle. Then move the belt to the side so it is not in your way. 2. There is a tab located on the outboard sides of the seatback. Pull forward on the tab to unlock the seatback. 3. Fold the seatback down. This will allow you direct access to the trunk. 4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 to fold down the other seatback. 1-7
