60 SEATS AND RESTRAINTS
Folding the Seat Backrest
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 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 a rear seat.
To fold the seatback:
1. Fold the head restraint. See Head
Restraints 0 52.
2. Pull the lever on top of the
backrest to unlock it.
3. Fold the backrest forward.
Repeat the steps to fold the
other backrest, if desired.

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.
