Head Restraints

Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -3

  • Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the restraint is at the same height as the top of the occupant’s head. This position reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash.
  • The height of the head restraints can be adjusted on the first and second-row seats. Pull the head restraint up or push it down to adjust it. The head restraints on the third-row seat cannot be adjusted.

Rear Seats

Rear Seat Operation

  • The rear seats in your vehicle have levers and straps used to adjust, remove, and reinstall the seats. By using the levers and straps in the correct order, you can easily remove the seats from the vehicle. If your vehicle has second-row captain chairs with airbags, the seats cannot be removed. When reinstalling the seats, make sure the seats are in the proper positions.
  • If your vehicle has a second-row center console, it can be removed. See Second Row Center Console on page 183. Do not put a seat in the center position because the safety belt cannot be worn properly in this position. See Safety Belts: They Are for Everyone on page 32.

Bucket Seats

  • Your vehicle may have bucket seats in the second row. These seats can be adjusted in several different ways.

Adjusting the Bucket Seats Forward and Rearward

  • There are two adjustment levers on the second-row bucket seats that enable them to move forward or rearwardChevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -4
  • One is located below the front of the seat.Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -5
  • The other lever is located on the rear of the seat.

To adjust the second-row bucket seats forward or rearward, do the following:

  1. Lift up either lever and slide the seat forward or rearward.
  2. Release the lever when the seat is in the desired position.
  3. Push and pull on the seat to make sure it is locked.

Removing the Bucket Seats

To remove the bucket seats, do the following:

  1. Make sure the head restraint is in the fully lowered position.
    Notice: Folding a rear seat with the safety belts still fastened may cause damage to the seat or the safety belts. Always unbuckle the safety belts and return them to their normal stowed position before folding the rear seat.
  2. Fold the seatback flat on the seat, by either pulling on the nylon strap, located on the rear right-hand side of the seat or by lifting the recline lever, located on the front right-hand side of the seatback.
  3. Lift either one of the adjuster levers and slide the seat to the most rearward position. See “Adjusting the Bucket Seats Forward and Rearward” earlier in this section.Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -6
  4. Release the rear set of hooks from the floor pins by pulling the nylon strap, located at the base of the seat. Use the strap to guide the seat forward

Captain Chairs

  • Your vehicle may have second-row captain chairs. If so, they can be adjusted forward or rearward and the seatbacks can be adjusted.

Adjusting the Captain Chairs Forward and Rearward

  • There are two manual adjustment bars on each seat. One is located under the front of the seat cushion. The other one is located under the rear of the seat cushion. Lift up either bar to slide the seat forward or rearward. Release the lever. Push and pull on the seat to make sure it is locked into place

Installing a Captain Chair (without a Side-Impact Airbag)

Do not put the seats in so they face rearward because they will not latch that way. For the second row, if you want more storage room behind the seat, adjust the seat by sliding it forward. Make sure the seatbacks are in the upright position, the seat belts are on the correct side of the seats and the seats are in the full rear position
before beginning this procedure

To install a captain chair, do the following:

  1. Hook the front latches over the front floor pins.Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -7
  2. Push the rear of the seat down to lock the rear latches onto the rear set of floor pinsChevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -8

Safety Belts

Safety Belts: They Are for Everyone This part of the manual tells you how to use safety belts properly. It also tells you some things you should not do with safety belts. Your vehicle has indicators to remind you and your passengers to buckle your safety belts. See the Safety Belt Reminder Light on page 232 and the Passenger Safety Belt Reminder Light on page 233. In most states and in all Canadian provinces, the law says to wear safety belts. Here is why: They work.

Why Safety Belts Work

  • When you ride in or on anything, you go as fast as it goes. Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -9
  • Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it is just a seat on wheelsChevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -10Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -11
  • Get it up to speed. Then stop the vehicle. The rider does not stop.

See “Erasing your Universal Home Remote Buttons” later in this section

Programming Universal Home  Remote — Fixed Code

  • Fixed-code garage door openers are used for garage doors produced prior to 1996. Fixed code uses the same coded signal every time, which is manually programmed by setting DIP switches for a unique personal code.

Follow these steps to program up to three channels:

  1. Remove the battery cover of the hand-held transmitter.Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -13
  2. Write down the eight to 12 coding switch settings from left to right. When the switch is in the up position, write “on,” and when the switch is in the down position, write “off”. If a switch is set between the up and down position, write “middle”.
  3. Enter these positions into the Universal Home. The Remote System is as follows. Press and release all three buttons at the same time to put the device into programming mode.Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -14
  4. The indicator light will blink slowly. In order from left to right, and within two and one-half minutes, enter each switch set into the Universal Home Remote System. Push one button for each switch as follows:
    • Left button = “on” switch position.
    • Right button = “off” switch position.
    • Middle button = “middle” switch position.
  5. After entering the switch settings, press and release all three buttons at the same time. The indicator lights will turn on
  6. Press and hold the button you would like to use to control the garage door until the garage door moves. The indicator light above the selected button should slowly blink. You may need to hold the button for five to 55 seconds.
  7. Immediately release the button when the garage door moves. The indicator light will blink rapidly until the programming is complete.
  8. Press and release the button again. The garage door should move, confirming that the programming is successful and complete. To program another device such as an additional garage door opener, a security device, or home lighting, repeat Steps 1 through 8, choosing a different function button in Step 7 than what
    you used for the garage door opener.

Programming Universal Home Remote — Rolling Code

  • Rolling code garage door openers are used for garage doors produced after 1996 and are code-protected. Rolling code means the coded signal is changed every time your remote control garage door opener is used.
  • Programming a rolling code garage door opener involves time-sensitive actions, so read the entire procedure before you begin. If you do not follow these actions, the device will time out and you will have to repeat the procedure.

Follow these steps to program up to three channels:

  1. Press the two outside buttons at the same time for one to two seconds, and immediately release them.Chevrolet UPLANDER 2007 Mini Van -15
  2. Go to the garage. Locate the garage door motor head and press and release the “learn” button. After pressing the “learn” button, you have 10 to 30 seconds to complete Step 4 depending on your garage control unit. If you cannot locate the “learn” button, refer to the owner’s guide for your garage door opener.
  3. Press and hold the button you would like to use to control the garage door until the garage door moves. The indicator light, above the selected button, should slowly blink. You may need to hold the button for five to 20 seconds.
  4. Immediately release the button when the garage door moves. The indicator light will blink rapidly until the programming is complete.
  5. Press and release the button again. The garage door should move, confirming that the programming is successful and complete. To program another device such as an additional garage door opener, a security device, or home lighting, repeat Steps 1 through 6, choosing a different function button in Step 4 than what you used for the garage door opener

Using Universal Home Remote

  • Press and hold the appropriate button for at least half of a second. The indicator light will come on while the signal is being transmitted.

Reprogramming Universal Home Remote Buttons

  • You can reprogram any of the three buttons by repeating the instructions.

Erasing Universal Home Remote Buttons

  • You should erase the programmed buttons when you sell the vehicle or terminate your lease. To erase either rolling code or fixed code on the

Universal Home Remote device, do the following:

  1. Press and hold the two outside buttons at the same time for approximately 20 seconds, until the indicator lights, located directly above the buttons, begin to blink rapidly.
  2. Once the indicator lights begin to blink, release both buttons. The codes from all buttons will be erased. For additional information on Universal Home Remote, see Customer Assistance Offices on page 560.
