Head Restraints
Head restraints are xed on some models and
adjustable on others. Slide an adjustable head restraint
up or down so that the top of the restraint is closest
to the top of your head. This position reduces the
chance of a neck injury in a crash.
Rear Seats
Rear Seat Operation
Your vehicle has folding rear seatbacks which allows for
more cargo space.
The rear seat release handles are located on the rear of
the seatbacks. Push back on the seatbacks as you
pull up on the handles. The head restraint will
automatically fold out of the way when the seatback is
folded down.

Using heavier suspension components to get added
durability might not change your weight ratings. Ask your
dealer to help you load your vehicle the right way.
Notice:Overloading your vehicle may cause
damage. Repairs would not be covered by your
warranty. Do not overload your vehicle.
If you put things inside of your vehicle—like suitcases,
tools, packages, or anything else— they will go as
fast as the vehicle goes. If you have to stop or
turn quickly, or if there is a crash, they’ll keep going.
{CAUTION:
Things you put inside your vehicle can strike
and injure people in a sudden stop or turn, or
in a crash.
Put things in the cargo area of your
vehicle. Try to spread the weight evenly.
Never stack heavier things, like suitcases,
inside the vehicle so that some of them
are above the tops of the seats.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
Do not leave an unsecured child restraint

When you carry something inside the
vehicle, secure it whenever you can.
Do not leave a seat folded down unless
you need to.

and install the new equipment.
