Installing the Third Row Seat

To install the seat:

1. Open the liftgate to access the rear of the vehicle.

2. Slide the front outboard seat wheels into the track on the floor and roll the seat forward. The front latches should lock into place. If the latches do not lock, try tilting the rear of the seat upward slightly.

3. Lower the rear of the seat and push down on the seat to engage the rear floor latches.

WARNING WARNING

A seat that is not locked into place properly can move around in a collision or sudden stop. People in the vehicle could be injured. Be sure to lock the seat into place properly when installing it.

4. Push and pull on the seat to make sure it is locked into place. The seatback cannot be raised to the upright position unless the seat is latched to the floor.

5. Raise the seatback to the upright position.

6. Push and pull on the seatback to make sure it is locked.

7. Make sure the safety belts are returned to the original position over the seatbacks.
