1-7 Easy Entry Seat (Two-Door Models)
The right front seat of your vehicle makes it easy for
people to get in and out of the rear seat.
1. Fold the right front seatback forward after lifting the
seatback latch fully.
2. The seat will slide forward to allow someone to get
into the rear seat area.
3. Push the seatback upright to lock and slide the seat
fully rearward to lock. The front passenger should
try to move the seat to make sure the seat is locked
into place.
CAUTION:
If an easy entry right front seat isn't locked, it
can move. In a sudden stop or crash, the person
sitting there could be injured. After you've used
it, be sure to push rearward on an easy entry seat
to be sure it is locked.
Rear Seats
Folding the Rear Seatback (Option)
To fold down the rear seatback, do the following:
1. Pull the release straps
located in the trunk. The
right strap operates the
passenger's side rear
split seat. The left strap
operates the driver's side
rear split seat.
2. Fold the seatback down from the inside of
the vehicle.
To raise the seatback, push the seatback up to return it to
its original position.
Push and pull on the seatback to make sure it is latched
securely in the fully upright position.

And, if you do have a heavy load, you should spread it
out. Don't carry more than 132 lbs. (60 kg) in your trunk.
CAUTION:
Do not load your vehicle any heavier than the
GVWR, or either the maximum front or rear
GAWR. If you do, parts on your vehicle can
break, and it can change the way your vehicle
handles. These could cause you to lose control
and crash. Also, overloading can shorten the life
of your vehicle.
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 trunk of your vehicle. In a
trunk, put them as far forward as you can.
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.
Don't leave an unsecured child restraint in
your vehicle.
When you carry something inside the
vehicle, secure it whenever you can.
Don't leave a seat folded down unless you
need to.
