A seat that isn't locked into place properly can
move around in a collision or sudden stop. People

CAUTION:
A safety belt that is improperly routed, not
properly attached, or twisted won't provide the
protection needed in a crash. The person wearing
the belt could be seriously injured. After
installing the seat, always check to be sure that
the safety belts are properly routed and attached,
and are not twisted.
Make sure the seatback is in the upright position and the
safety belts are on the correct section of the seat.
Don't put the sections of the bench seat in so they face
rearward because they won't latch that way.
The split bench seats have seat position labels, located
on the back of each seat, showing where the seat must
go. Follow that diagram.
The seat must be placed in the proper location for the
legs to attach correctly.
1. Squeeze the angled bar toward the solid crossbar
while placing the front hooks of the bench seat onto
the front two floor pins.
