Rear Seats Rear Seat Operation (Crew Cab) If your vehicle is a crew cab, the rear seatback can be folded forward. Before you can fold the rear seatback, you need to unlatch the center safety belt 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 to unlatch the center position safety belt buckle. Then move the belt to the side so it is not in the way. 2. Grasp the loop located on the side of the seatback you want to fold and pull until you hear a click. 4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 to fold down the other seatback. {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. {CAUTION: A safety belt that is improperly routed, not properly attached, or twisted won't provide the protection needed in a crash. The person wearing the belt could be seriously injured. After raising the rear seatback, always check to be sure that the safety belts are properly routed and attached, and are not twisted. 3. Fold the seatback down. 1-9
