Seat, seatbelt and SRS airbags Folding down the rear seat After returning the rear seat to its original position, be certain to place all of the seatbelts and the tab attached to the seat cushion above the seat cushion. And make certain that the shoulder belts are fully visible. Make sure that the rear seatback is securely locked after returning the seatback to its original position. When securely locked, the red marking on the lock is no longer visible. If it is not locked securely, the rear seatback may fold down during driving. Never allow passengers to ride on the folded rear seatback. Doing so may result in serious injury or death. Secure skis and other lengthy items properly to prevent them from being thrown around inside the vehicle and causing serious injury during a sudden stop, a sudden steering maneuver or a rapid acceleration. HS8005BA Never stack luggage or other cargo higher than the top of the front seatback because it could tumble forward and injure passengers in the event of a sudden stop or accident. 1-10
