WARNING
A safety 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 safety belts are
properly routed and attached, and
are not twisted.
To raise the seatback:
1. Make sure the safety belt is in
the guide on the top of the
seatback.
2. Lift the seatback up and push it
rearward until it clicks into place.
Keep the safety belts clear of the
seatback and untwisted.
A tab near the seatback lever
retracts when the seatback is
locked in place.
The center rear safety belt
may lock when you raise the
seatback. If this happens, let the
belt go back all the way and
start again.

WARNING
If the seatback is not locked, it
could move forward in a sudden
stop or crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting there.
Always pull forward on the top of
the seatback at the area of the
latch to be sure it is locked.
3. Push and pull on the seatback
to make sure it is locked into
position.
4. Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for the
other seatback, if necessary.
Keep the seat in the upright locked
position when not in use.
