For information on the proper operation of the safety restraints, refer to Safety Restraints in this chapter. The third row seat may be removed from the vehicle for additional cargo space. Acessing the third row seat Your vehicle is equipped with an easy entry second row seat feature which allows ready access to the third row seat. You may enter the third row seat: • through the passenger side rear door if your vehicle has a second row bench seat • through either rear door if your vehicle has second row bucket seats Ensure that the second row seat is in the upright position in order to achieve optimum access to the third row.
