| Warning
If either seatback is not locked, it
could move forward in a sudden
stop or crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting there. Always push and pull on the seatbacks to be sure they are locked. |
| Warning A seat belt that is improperly routed, not properly attached, or twisted will not provide the protection needed in a crash. The person wearing the belt could be seriously injured. After raising the rear seatback, always check to be sure that the seat belts are properly routed and attached, and are not twisted. |
To raise a seatback:
- Ensure the seat belt is in the belt stowage clip.
- Lift the seatback up and push it
rearward to lock it in place.
A tab near the seatback lever retracts when the seatback is locked in place.
- Return the head restraint to the upright position. See Head Restraints.
- Push and pull the top of the seatback to be sure it is locked into position.
- Repeat the steps to raise the other seatback, if necessary.
When the seat is not in use, it should be kept in the upright, locked position.
