3-8 Seats and Restraints
{
Warning
With head restraints that are not
installed and adjusted properly,
there is a greater chance that
occupants will suffer a neck/
spinal injury in a crash. Do not
drive until the head restraints for
all occupants are installed and
adjusted properly.
To return the rear seats to the
normal seating position:
1. Insert the safety belt latch plate
into the hole on the side trim
before raising the seatback.
The safety belt should not cross
the seatback locking mechanism
when raising the seatback.
2. Lift the seatback up slightly and
reinstall the head restraint. See
“Head Restraint Removal and
Reinstallation” under Lower
Anchors and Tethers for
Children (LATCH System) on
page 3-38.
3. Push the seatback rearward all
the way to lock it in place.
4. Push and pull the top of the
seatback to be sure it is locked
into position.
5. Return the seat cushion to its
original position and push down
on the front part of the seat
cushion until it latches.
6. Remove the safety belt from the
hole on the side trim.
7. Repeat Steps 1–6 for the other
seatback and seat cushion,
if necessary.
If added cargo space is not needed,
the seatbacks should be kept in the
upright, locked position
