If
any easy entry seat isn’t locked, it can move.
In
a sudden stop or crash, the person sitting there

rearward on any easy entry seat to be
sure it is locked.

with
your body, to make sure the seat is
locked into place.

Rear
Seats
- -
If
a head restraint is
not
installed on the seatback
or stored in the vehicle properly, it could be
thrown about the vehicle in a crash or sudden
maneuver. People in the vehicle could be injured.
Remove the head restraints only when
you
need
to fold the seat, and be sure that the head
restraints are stored securely in the storage bag
and placed under the rear seat. When the seat
is
returned to the passenger position, be sure the
head restraints are installed properly.

your vehicle has a rear seat, the seat can be folded flat
for more cargo space. Before folding, make sure that
