Seating and Safety Restraints Before returning the seatback to its original position, make sure that cargo or any objects are not trapped behind the seatback. After returning the seatback to its original position, reinstall the head restraints, and pull on the seatback to ensure that it has fully latched. An unlatched seat may become dangerous in the event of a sudden stop or collision. Remove the head restraint stored under the front set and return it to the original position on the seatback. Failure to do so could result in personal injury. 3. Unsnap the safety belt webbing from the quarter trim panel. To remove the rear cushion 1. Lift the yellow tab to release the hinges. 2.
