Buick Encore: Front Seats / Front Seat Armrest

There is an armrest on the inboard side of
the driver seat. To raise or lower the
armrest, push up or pull down on the
armrest.
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...
The front passenger seatback folds flat.
Warning
If you fold the seatback forward to carry
longer objects, such as skis, be sure any
such cargo is not near an airbag...
Other information:
The airbag system does not need regularly
scheduled maintenance or replacement.
Make sure the airbag readiness light is
working. See Airbag Readiness Light.
Caution
If an airbag covering is damaged, opened,
or broken, the airbag may not work
properly...
The vehicle has a shoulder belt height
adjuster for the driver and front outboard
passenger seating positions.
Adjust the height so the shoulder portion of
the belt is on the shoulder and not falling
off of it. The belt should be close to, but not
contacting, the neck...
