The recline feature allows adjustment of the
seatback for occupants of different sizes for
added comfort and to help obtain proper seat
belt fit. For additional information, refer to
“Precautions on seat belt usage” in this sec-
tion. Also, the seatback can be reclined to
allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is
stopped and the shift lever is in P (Park).
WARNING
∙ After adjustment, gently rock in the seatto make sure it is securely locked.
∙ Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you could be
thrown into it and receive neck or other
serious injuries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious internal
injuries.
∙ For the most effective protection when the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be
upright. Always sit well back and upright
in the seat and adjust the seat belt prop-
erly. For additional information, refer to
“Precautions on seat belt usage” in this
section.
ARMRESTS
The rear bench seat comes equipped with an
armrest. Pull the armrest down as shown.
FLEXIBLE SEATING
WARNING
∙ Never allow anyone to ride in the cargoarea or on the rear seats when they are in
the fold-down position. In a collision,
people riding in these areas without
proper restraints are more likely to be se-
riously injured or killed. ∙ 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.
∙ Do not allow more than one person to use the same seat belt.
∙ Do not fold down the rear seats when occupants are in the rear seat area or any
luggage is on the rear seats.
– Make sure that the seat path is clear before moving the seat.
– Be careful not to allow hands or feet to get caught or pinched in the seat.
∙ Head restraints/headrests should be ad- justed properly as they may provide sig-
nificant protection against injury in an
accident. Always replace and adjust them
properly if they have been removed for
any reason.
∙ If the head restraints/headrests are re- moved for any reason, they should be se-
curely stored to prevent them from caus-
ing injury to passengers or damage to the
vehicle in case of sudden braking or an
accident.

∙ When returning the seatbacks to the up-right position, be certain they are com-
pletely secured in the latched position. If
they are not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an accident or sud-
den stop.
∙ Properly secure all cargo to help prevent it from sliding or shifting. Do not place
cargo higher than the seatbacks. In a sud-
den stop or collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury.
Folding the rear bench seat
To fold the rear bench seat flat for maximum
cargo hauling:
1. Make sure that the head restraints/headrests are lowered. To re-
move the head restraints/headrests,
push and hold the lock knob while mov-
ing the head restraints/headrests in an
upward direction. Store the head
restraints/headrests properly so they
are not loose in the vehicle. 2. Stow the rear seat belts in the seat belt
hooks found on the sides of the vehicle.
3. Lift up on the recline lever on the side of the outboard seats or pull the lever on
either side of the cargo area to fold the
seatbacks flat.
4. To return the rear bench seats to a seat- ing position, push up on the seatback
until it latches in place.
