1996 GMC Jimmy Owner's Manual - Page 17

Easy Entry Seat (2-Door Models) The right front seat of your vehicle makes it easy to get in and out of the rear seat. Tilt the right front seatback completely forward and the whole seat will slide forward. Move the seatback to its original position after someone gets into the rear seat area. Then move the seat rearward until it locks. Rear Seats Your vehicle has a folding rear seat which lets you fold the seatbacks down for more cargo space. 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 is to be sure it locked. Tilt the seatback completely forward again to get out. The rear seat release handles are in the upper center of the rear of the seatbacks. Push back on the seatbacks as you pull up on the handles. To raise the seatbacks, just lift up the seatbacks and push until they lock in the upright position. Push and pull on the seatbacks to check that the latches have locked in the upright position. If they haven't, have them fixed immediately. 1-6
