Before installing your third row
seat, ensure that the detachable
anchor tongues are stowed into the
floor and the loose belts are stored
out of the way. For proper
latching, ensure that the floor tubs
are clear of debris.
From the rear of the vehicle, with
the liftgate open:
1. With assistance, lift the seat into
the rear of the vehicle and guide
the seat positioners over the front
pins of the floor tubs.
2. Guide the positioners around
each pin and lower the seat.
• When the rear of the seat is
10–13 cm (4–5 in) above the
rear pins, let the seat drop. This
will ensure that the seat will
properly latch into the floor.
3. Locate the seat belt anchor
tongue in the plastic housing on
the floor.
4. Disconnect the detachable
anchor from its stowage location
and connect it to the anchor
tongue (making sure that the label
on the detachable anchor is
pointing toward the outside of the
vehicle (left side) and that the
belts are not twisted or jammed).
5. Insert the seat detachable
anchor into detachable anchor
tongue until you hear a “click” and
feel the latch engage.
6. Push up on the seat to verify
that it is latched into the floor.
