1996 GMC Jimmy Owner's Manual - Page 16

Head Restraints Head restraints are fixed on some models and ad-justable on others. Slide an adjustable head restraint up or down so that the top of the restraint is closest to the top of your ears. This position reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash. Your adjustable head restraint may also be tilted forward for greater comfort. To return the seatback to the upright position, push the seatback all the way back until the latch catches. If the seatback was reclined before being folded forward, it will return to the reclined position. Seatback Latches The front seatback folds forward to let people get into the back seat or to access the storage area behind the seat. If the seatback isn't locked, could move forward it in a sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury to the person sitting there. Always press rearward it on the seatback to be sure is locked. To fold the front seatback forward, lift the latch and push the seat forward. 1-5
