WARNING

Ensure that the seat belts are not damaged when operating the seat back-
rests. Under no circumstances must the rear seat belts be jammed by the folded
back seat backrests.

The belts and the belt locks must be in their original position after folding
back the seat cushions and the seat backrests - they must be ready to use.

Pay attention that the seat backrest is correctly interlocked. It is only then
that the three-point seat belt can reliably fulfil its function.

The seat backrests must be securely interlocked in position so that no
objects in the luggage compartment can slide into the passenger compartment
if there is sudden braking - risk of injury!
Note
If the housing of the net partition is installed, first of all fold the left seat backrest
forward and then the right double seat backrest.
