Head Restraints
Slide the head restraint

Removable Rear

Seats
SEAT-LOCATION
There are three types
of
rear bucket seats: RIGHT
ONLY, CENTER OR LEFT and LEFT ONLY. RIGHT
ONLY and
LEFT
ONLY
seats may be equipped with the
built-in child restraint option.
The rear bucket seats can be removed to provide extra
storage. Each seat that has the built-in child restraint
option fits in only one location in your vehicle, but seats
that don’t have the built-in child restraint option can be
moved to different floor locations. The back of each seat
has a diagram (similar to the one pictured) that shows
where the seat must be located in your vehicle.
RIGHT ONLY seats that don’t have the built-in child
restraint option fit only
in
the right locations. LEFT
ONLY seats that don’t have the built-in child restraint
option fit only in the left locations. The CENTER OR
LEFT seat fits
in
the center location and in either left
location.
RIGHT ONLY seats that have the built-in child restraint
option fit only
in
the rear set of floor pins in the right
location of
the
second row. LEFT
ONLY
seats that have
the built-in child restraint option fit only in the rear set
of
floor pins in the left location of the second row.
