seat forward, pull
the prop rod out
from the retainer

1. Pull the lever

prop rod bracket
until the rod

seat bracket.
2. Place the prop rod back into the storage position.
3. Pull the seat toward you using one of the straps
located on the ends of the seat. Push firmly down
until the seat latches in the floor.
4. Try pulling it up to be sure it is locked into place.
