- Press the backrest back onto the retaining bar until it locks in place.
To return the backrest to its normal position, pull the handle (which is now at the front, on the underside)
to release the backrest from the retaining bar. Return the backrest to the normal position as described in
the right column.
Partition with storage pockets (accessory)
A partition with storage pockets is available as an accessory on V70 models with a 3- section rear seat.
This partition can help prevent objects in the cargo area from being thrown forward when the center
section of the backrest is not in the upright position.
Please refer to the installation instructions that are included with the partition or consult your Volvo
retailer.
Returning the center section of the backrest to its normal position
- Before the center section is put back in place, the right section of the backrest must be locked in the
upright position.
- Replace the backrest by pressing the bottom section onto the retaining bar until the backrest clicks into
place.
- Fold up the backrest until it is securely locked in place.
WARNING!
For safety reasons, the center section of the backrest or seat cushion should not be left in the
vehicle after they have been removed.
Please be aware that with the center section of the backrest removed, unanchored objects in the rear
cargo area could be thrown forward between the outboard sections of the backrest in the event of a
sudden stop.
When the center section of the backrest is put back in place, the right-hand section of the backrest
must be in the upright position in order to lock the center section securely in place and to be able to
use the center seat belt.
