VEHICLES WITHOUT PASSENGER
SEATING INSTALLED
All passenger occupants within the vehicle must be in a
seat equipped with a Seat Belt System and Head
Restraint for the safety of the passenger. If the passen-
ger and/or rear seats have been removed, do not ride
in those areas.
This vehicle has been designed to maximize total per-
formance. In doing so, the deletion of passenger seats
and/or rear seat may affect the Noise, Vibration, and
Harshness (NVH) characteristics. As a result, the inte-
rior will be louder overall.
WARNING!
•
If the passenger and/or rear seats have been
removed, do not ride in those areas. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed.
•
If this vehicle was not factory equipped with a pas-
senger seat, NEVER attempt to install a passenger
seat because the safety systems, including the air
bags and seat belt, may not properly protect you.
•
It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or
outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in
this area are more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
•
Only ride in available seating positions equipped
with seat belt systems. Always properly wear your
seat belt. Failure to do so could result in an
increased risk of serious injury or death in the
event of an accident.

WARNING!
•
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a seat belt properly. Occupants, including the
driver, should always wear their seat belts whether
or not an air bag is also provided at their seating
positions to minimize the risk of severe injury or
death in the event of a crash.
•
All occupants, including the driver, should not oper-
ate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat if the head
restraints are not in place of their proper positions
in order to minimize the risk of neck injury in the
event of a crash.
•
Head restraints should never be adjusted while the
vehicle is in motion. Driving a vehicle with the head
restraints improperly adjusted or removed could
cause serious injury or death in the event of a
collision.
PASSENGER SEAT EASY ENTRY
On the passenger seat, pull forward on the lever
located on the side of the seatback in order to dump
the seatback and slide the seat forward. You can also
temporarily remove the seat belt from the guide loop on
the seat and allow the seat belt to retract out of the
way. This allows for easier access to the rear seat. To
return the seat to a normal seating position, first return
the seatback to its original recline location and then
slide the entire seatback to the preset lock position.
NOTE:
•
The front passenger seat needs to slide back to a
preset position for the fore/aft adjuster to be prop-
erly locked. For example, if the front passenger has
the seat adjusted full rear and exits the vehicle to let
a rear passenger enter using the easy entry handle,
the fore/aft adjuster needs to slide back about
2/3 of the way rearward to hit the lock position. If
the adjuster is not returned to this preset position,
the seat will appear to be loose.
•
If the front passenger uses the easy entry handle
and then lifts up the recliner handle without moving
the seatback to its original preset position, the
recliner will not lock until it is moved to the full
recline position.
