Tesla MODEL 3 2020 Owner's Manual page 33

WARNING: Riding in a moving vehicle
with the seat back reclined can result
in serious injuries in a collision, as you
could slide under the lap belt or be
propelled into the seat belt. Ensure
your seat back is reclined no more
than 30 degrees when the vehicle is
moving.
Folding Rear Seats
Model 3 has a split rear seat that can fold
forward.
NOTE: Driving with the rear seats folded
forward might result in increased perceivable
noise and/or vibration coming from the rear
of the vehicle (trunk, suspension, etc.).
Before folding, remove items from the seats
and the rear footwell. To allow the rear seat
backs to fold completely flat, you may need
to move the front seats forward.
To fold a rear seat, pull the corresponding
lever and fold the seat forward.
Seating and Safety Restraints
Front and Rear Seats
Raising Rear Seats
Before raising a rear seat, make sure that the
seat belts are not trapped behind the
backrest.
Pull the seat back upward until it locks into
place.
To confirm that the seat back is locked in the
upright position, try pulling it forward.
WARNING: Always ensure the seat
backs are locked in their upright
position by pushing it forward or
rearward. Failure to do so increases
the risk of injury.
Head Supports
The front seats and outer rear seats include
integrated head supports that are not
adjustable.
The rear center seat includes an adjustable
head support that can be raised, lowered, or
removed. The head support should always be
raised and locked into position (so that the
center is aligned with the center of the ears)
when occupied by a passenger that is not in a
child safety seat.
