Seatback Recline

Front seatback release levers

It is not necessary to use the emergency seatback
release lever for rear seat entry or exit. The
seatback remains unlocked with normal usage
and locks only during emergency stopping, upon
impact, or on steep downhill grades. The inertia
seatback latch will allow the seatback to rotate
approximately 5˚ forward before it locks. The
release is provided only to unlock the seatback
when parked on steep downhill grades or after a
collision.
