Folding the Seat Backrest
Caution
Folding a rear seat with the seat
belts still fastened may cause
damage to the seat or the seat
belts. Always unfasten the seat
belts and return them to their
normal stowed position before
folding a rear seat.
If equipped, either side of the backrest
can be folded for more cargo space.
Fold a seatback only when the vehicle
is not moving.
To fold the seatback:
1. Disconnect the rear seat belt
mini-latch using a key in the slot
on the mini-buckle, and let the
belt retract.

2. Unlock the seatback using the
vehicle key in the cylinder.
Pull the lever on top of the
seatback toward you to release
the seatback.
A red tab near the seatback lever
raises when the seatback is
released.
3. Fold the backrest forward.
Repeat Steps 2 and 3 to fold the
other seatback, 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.
