When you put the seats back in the vehicle, be sure to follow the label on the back of the seat for proper location. Follow the previous diagram when the text in this manual tells you what sets of floor cups to use for each seat. Second Row Safety Belt Stowage If your vehicle has a split bench seat in the second row, use the clip on the safety belt to secure the belt after it is disconnected from the mini-buckle. When removing the second row split bench seat, secure the loose end of the safety belt in this clip. This will keep the safety belt from dangling and possibly striking something. Do not have the second row outside safety belt stored if someone is sitting in the second row outside position. 3. Release the rear set of hooks from the floor pins by pulling the nylon strap located at the base of the seat; hang on to the strap as the seat folds forward. To return the seat(s) to the normal position, do the following: 1. Push the seat back and firmly push the rear hooks onto the rear floor pins by pushing down on the rear of the seat. 2. Try to raise the seat to check that it is locked down. 3. Lift the seatback recliner lever or pull the nylon strap on the back of the seat and raise the seatback until it locks upright. 4. Push and pull on the seatback to check that it is locked. Flip and Fold Feature The rear seats in your vehicle, except the captain's chairs, can be folded forward. Use this feature for exiting and entering third row seats. 1. If the seats have the adjustable head restraints, push them fully down. 2. Fold the seatback flat on the seat, by either pulling on the nylon strap on the rear of the seat or lifting up on the lever located on the front of the seatback. If the seat adjusts forward, slide it all the way back. 1-7
