GMC Terrain: Rear Seats / Raising the Seatback
Warning
If either seatback is not locked, it
could move forward in a sudden
stop or crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting there.
Always push and pull on the
seatbacks to be sure they are
locked.
Warning
A seat belt that is improperly
routed, not properly attached,
or twisted will not provide the
protection needed in a crash. The
person wearing the belt could be
seriously injured. After raising the
rear seatback, always check to be
sure that the seat belts are
properly routed and attached, and
are not twisted.
To raise a seatback:

- Ensure the seat belt is in the
belt stowage clip.
- Lift the seatback up and push it
rearward to lock it in place.
A tab near the seatback lever
retracts when the seatback is
locked in place.
- Return the head restraint to the
upright position. See Head
Restraints.
- Push and pull the top of the
seatback to be sure it is locked
into position.
- Repeat the steps to raise the
other seatback, if necessary.
When the seat is not in use, it
should be kept in the upright, locked
position.
Either side of the seatback can be
folded for more cargo space. Fold a
seatback only when the vehicle is
not moving.
Caution
Folding a rear seat with the seat
belts still fastened may cause
damage to the seat or the seat
belts...
Warning
If temperature change or pain to
the skin cannot be felt, the seat
heater may cause burns. See the
Warning under Heated and
Ventilated Front Seats...

the top of the child restraint to the
vehicle. A top tether anchor is built
into the vehicle. The top tether
attachment hook (2) on the child
restraint connects to the top tether
anchor in the vehicle in order to
reduce the forward movement and
rotation of the child restraint during
driving or in a crash...
