Installing the Third Row Seats

To reinstall a third row seat:

1. Before installing the seat the seatback must be folded forward. See “Folding the Seatback” earlier in this section.

The seats must be placed in the proper locations to attach correctly. The wider seat must be installed on the driver side and the narrower seat on the passenger side. Remove the bolts from the holes in the floor before installing the seats.

2. Place the seat on the vehicle floor so that the front seat hooks are on the vehicle bars.

3. Reinstall the bolts, and torque to 55Y(41 lb ft). Pull up on the seat to make sure it is locked in place.

4. Raise the seatback to the upright position. Push and pull on the seatback to make sure it is locked into place.

5. Reconnect the center safety belt mini-latch to the mini-buckle.

Do not let it twist.
