Jeep 2012 Compass - User Guide - Manual (Page 16)

Fold-Flat Front Passenger Seat
• The front passenger seat can be
folded flat. Pull up on the recliner
handle, to the full upward position,
to fold down the seatback.
CAUTION!
DO NOT place any article under a power seat or impede its ability to
move as it may cause damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may
become limited if movement is stopped by an obstruction in the seat’s
path.
WARNING!
• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The
sudden movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The
seat belt might not be properly adjusted, and you could be severely
injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no
longer resting against your chest. In a collision, you could slide
under the seat belt and be severely injured or killed. Use the recliner
only when the vehicle is parked.
REAR SEATS
Folding Rear Seatback
• To fold each rear seatback, pull
the strap forward to move the
seatback forward and flat.
Reclining Rear Seatback
• To recline each rear seatback, pull
the strap forward just enough to
release the seatback latch. Then
push the seatback to a reclined
position, approximately 35
degrees maximum, and release
the strap.
