Replacing the Split Bench Seat A safety belt that is improperly routel , not properly attached, or twisted won't provide the protection needed in a crash. The person wearing the belt could be seriously injured. After installing the seat, always check to be sure that the safety belts are properly routed and attached, and are not twisted. 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 seatbackto be sureit is locked. Make sure the seatback is in the upright position and the safety belts are on the correct section of the seat. Don't put the sections of the bench seat in so they face rearward because they won't latch that way. The split bench seats have seat position labels, located on the back of each seat, showing where the seat must go. Follow that diagram. I A seat that isn iocked into place properly can move around in a collision or sudden stop. People in the vehicle could be injured. Be sure to lock the seat into place properly when installing it.
