To Reinstall the Rear Seat Cushion

CAUTION:

A safety belt that isn’t properly routed through
the seat cushion or is twisted won’t provide the
protection needed in a crash. If the safety belt
hasn’t been routed through the seat cushion at
all, it won’t be there to work for the next
passenger. The person sitting in that position
could be badly injured. After reinstalling the seat
cushion, always check to be sure that the safety
belts are properly routed and are not twisted.

1. Buckle the center passenger position safety belt, then

route the safety belts through the proper slots in the
seat cushion. Don’t let the safety belts get twisted.

2. Slide the rear of the cushion up and under the

seatback so the rear locating guides hook into the
wire loops on the back frame.

3. With the seat cushion lowered, push rearward and

then press down on the seat cushion until the spring
locks on both ends engage.

4. Check to make sure the safety belts are properly routed

and that no portion of any safety belt is trapped under
the seat. Also make sure the seat cushion is secured.
