cushions:
1. Pull the straps forward, located in the center
of each seat cushion, to fold the seat cush-
ions forward.
2. Lift up and fold each of the red release
handles on the seat base toward the front of
the vehicle. This will release the seat cushion
from the seat base.
3. Then lift up on the seat cushion to remove it
from the seat base. Be sure to store it in a
secure place.
To return the rear seatback to a seating position:
1. Push the anchor bars on the bottom of the
seat cushions down into the seat base.
2. Rotate the seat cushion toward the rear of
the vehicle and push down until they are
folded flat to secure each seat cushion to the
seat base. Make sure to hold the seat
belts above the seat cushion and prop-
erly push the seat cushion down into
place.
WARNING
● Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo
area or on the rear seat when it is in the
fold-down position. Use of these areas
by passengers without proper restraints
could result in serious injury in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
● Do not allow people to ride in any area
of your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts. Be sure everyone
in your vehicle is in a seat and using a
seat belt properly. Never ride in the rear
seat unless the seat bottom cushions
are in place and latched.
