The front passenger's seatback may fold flat. To fold the seatback, do the following:

1. Lift the bar under the seat to unlock it.
2. Slide the seat as far back as it will go and release the bar. Try to move the seat with your body to make sure it is locked into place.



3. Lift the recliner lever, located on the outside of the seat, and fold the seat forward until the seatback disengages. Continue to fold the seat forward until it locks in the folded position. Pull up on the seatback to be sure it is locked.

Caution: If you fold the seatback forward to carry longer objects, such as skis, be sure any such cargo is not near an airbag. In a crash, an inflating airbag might force that object toward a person. This could cause severe injury or even death. Secure objects away from the area in which an airbag would inflate. For more information, see "Where Are the airbags?" and "Loading Your Vehicle," in the Index.
