TABLE OF CONTENTS

Driver’s and Passenger Easy Entry Seats (Two-Door)
• Push the lever on the seatback rear-ward (toward the rear of the vehicle) to
tilt the entire seat forward.
•
To return the seat to a sitting position,
rotate the seatback upright until it
locks. Push the seat rearward until the
track locks.
NOTE:
• If equipped with a combination lever, the seatback will return to its first
locked position. The recliner handle
will have to be actuated to adjust the seatback to the desired reclined position.
• The front passenger seats have a track memory which returns the seat to just past the halfway point of the track, regardless of its original position.
• The recliner and easy entry levers should not be used during the automatic returning of the seat to its fully upright position.
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 Seat
• Be sure that the front seats are fully upright and positioned forward. This will allowthe rear seat to fold down easily.
To Fold The Rear Seat
• Lift the seatback release lever and fold the seatback forward (two-door models).
• Slowly flip the entire seat (two-doormodels) forward.
• Locate the pull strap, located on the outboard side of the seat, and pull it
toward you until the seatback releases
(four-door models).
To Raise The Rear Seat
• Lift up on the seatback to return it tothe upright position.
WARNING!
• It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle.
In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely to be severely 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.
• Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into position. If the seatback is
not securely locked into position, the seat will not provide the proper stability
for child seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause you
or others to be severely injured or killed.
