Rear Seats - Maserati Levante Owner's Manual

Rear Seats

Rear seats can fit three passengers.
Seats and seat belts are parts of the
occupant restraint system of the
vehicle.
WARNING!
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in
a seat and using a seat belt properly.
NOTE:
See chapter "Occupants Restraint
Systems" in section "Before Starting"
for seat belt positioning.
Rear Seat Folding Seatback
The 60/40 split-folding seatback of the
rear seat provides for a recliner
feature with three available fixed
positions that can be set using the
lever on seat external side. The LH
lever tilts the long part (60), while the
RH lever tilts the shorter one (40).
The less tilted position (90°) is the one
most suitable when a child seat must
be installed; the other positions tilt
the seatback toward the liftgate up to
23°.
To tilt the seatback, lift the lever from
its rest position 0 to position 1 while
pushing the seatback to the back until
reaching the required position. When
releasing the lever, the fixed positions
will be acknowledged by lever control
cable clicking in place to lock.
Ensure that seatback is fastened to the
position by trying to move it back and
forth. Lever control cable locks also
when fully folding the seatback down
on the seat.
To move the seatback in another
position, lift lever in position 1 and
hold it up until bringing seatback to
the new fixed position, which is
acknowledged by the cable locking in
place when releasing the lever.
WARNING!
• Ensure the seatback is always locked
in one of the fixed positions before
fastening the rear seat belts. An
Understanding the Vehicle
unlocked seatback cannot ensure
the necessary stability for
passengers and/or for child seats.
An unlocked seatback could cause
severe injuries in case of accident.
• When fastening a child seat on
external rear seats, ensure that the
corresponding seatback is duly
locked in the less tilted position.
NOTE:
Rear seat backrest can be fully folded
to increase luggage space. See "Cargo
Area" in this section for further
details.
Rear Head Restraints
The seat head restraints are adjustable
in height.
NOTE:
When there are no occupants in the
seat, lowered the head restraint in
order to provide the driver for
maximum visibility. See label on each
side of the central head restrain (if
foreseen) or on the fixed side
windows, shown in the pictures.
