Seatback Latches (Two-Door Models) The front seatback folds forward to let people get into the back seat. To fold a front seatback forward, lift the latch located on the lower back side of the seatback and push the seatback forward. Easy Entry Seat (If Equipped) CAUTION: If an easy entry right front seat isn't locked, it can move. In a sudden stop or crash, the person sitting there could be injured. After you've used it, be sure to push rearward on an easy entry seat to be sure it is locked. The right front seat of some two-door vehicles makes it easy to get in and out of the rear seat. When you return the seatback to its original position, make sure the seatback is locked. The latch must be down for the seat to work properly. 1. Lift the right front seatback latch to release the seatback. 2. Tilt the seatback completely forward and the whole seat will slide forward. 3. Move the right front seatback to its original position after someone gets into the rear seat area. 4. Then move the seat rearward until it locks. Tilt the seatback completely forward again and move the seat to get out of the back seat. CAUTION: If the seatback isn't locked, it could move forward in a sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury to the person sitting there. Always press rearward on the seatback to be sure it is locked. 1-6
