When you return the seatback to its
upright position, reposition the rear

Luggage and other cargo

backs. Failure to follow these
warnings could result in seri-

CAUTION
When you fold the rear seatback
or put luggage on the rear seat
cushion, you must insert the
buckle into the pocket in the
seatback. Doing so can prevent
the buckle from being crushed
by the rear seatback or luggage.
✽ ✽
NOTICEWhen returning the rear seatbacks
to the upright position, remember
to return the rear shoulder belts to
their proper position. Routing the
safety belt webbing through the
rear safety belt guides will help
keep the belts from being trapped
behind or under the seats.
