To install the rear bucket seat: 1. Lift the seat assembly into the vehicle and drop the front and rear floor hooks into the floor wells at a point just behind the floor attachment pins. Rotate the seat latch handle forward, causing the J hook to engage over the front of the foremost well retainer. For right hand seats, continue rotating the seat latch handle until it comes to a complete stop on the top of the tube. This will cause the seat assembly to slide forward, engaging the front and rear floor hooks with the floor well retainers. For left hand seats, push the seat latch handle downward to a full stop. This locks the seat in position. Before you engage the safety belt, be sure it is not twisted. Remove any twist, then insert the tongue end of the detachable anchor into the detachable anchor until you hear a "snap" and feel the latch engage. RWARNING Check to see that the seat and seatback are latched securely in position. Keep floor area free of objects that would prevent proper seat engagement. Never attempt to adjust the seat while the vehicle is in motion. 2. 3. Two and Three Passenger Bench Seats and Seat Bed Assemblies (If Equipped) NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with a Built-In Child Seat, make sure the child seat is properly stowed before operating the seat bed. 100
