Your vehicle is equipped with a split folding rear seat. A split folding rear seat enables you to carry long cargo by folding down part or all of the rear seat.

On sedans, you can fold either the driver's or passenger's right side of the seatback separately or both sides together. Lift the lever on the corner of the seatback.
Make sure the front seat is not reclined. If it is, the rear seatback won't fold down all the way.
To lower the rear seatback, remove the rear center lap-shoulder belt latch by using a key to press the release button.

To raise the seatback up, follow these steps:
- Raise the seatback up and make sure it latches. Push and pull at the top of the seatback to ensure that all of the latches are secure.
- Reconnect the center safety belt latch plate to the buckle.
Make sure the safety belt label is pointing to the release button, and that both the safety belt label and release button are facing the front of the vehicle. Make sure the belt is not twisted. Push and pull on the latch plat to ensure the belt is secure.
Wagon
On wagons, you can fold either the passenger's side of the seatback or the entire seatback.
To fold down the passenger's side of the seatback, pull the lever on the corner of the passenger's side seatback.
To lower the entire rear seatback, pull the lever on the corner of the driver's side seatback.
When the seatback is put in an upright position, be sure the latches engage by pushing rearward with your hand over the latch locations.
Then push and pull at the top of the seatback to ensure that all latches are secure.
