34 GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
60/40 Split Folding Rear Seat
The 60/40 Split Folding Rear Seat can be
folded flat to access the storage area behind
the seat. The seat bottom can also be lifted into
the Stadium Position to create more storage
space on the rear floor, and provide access to
the underseat storage bins (if equipped). Refer
to “Rear Seat Stadium Position” in this section
for more information.
NOTE:
Be sure that the front seats are fully upright
and positioned forward. This will allow the
rear seat to fold down easily.
The center head restraints must be in the
lowest position to avoid contact with the
center console when folding the seat.
Folding The Rear Seats
To fold down the rear seat, pull the release strap
located on the upper outboard side of the rear
seat to release the seat. The head restraints are
folded independently. Refer to “Head
Restraints” in this chapter for further
information.
NOTE:
Each rear seatback can be locked in an upright
pos
ition using the vehicle key. Each seatback
must be unlocked to release for folding.
Release Strap Locations
Do not place anything on the seat or
seatback that insulates against heat, such
as a blanket or cushion. This may cause the
seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat
that has been overheated could cause
serious burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.
WARNING!
Seatback is not intended to be used for
storing cargo when folded flat. Seatback only
folds to allow access to the cargo area behind
the seat. Vehicle should not be operated with
unsecured cargo on the second row folded
seatback.
WARNING! (Continued)
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 seriously 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.
