CAUTION
Ø When folding a seatback, always
hold onto the seatback with your
other hand while operating the
lever. If the seatback is not
supported, it will flip forward
suddenly and could cause injury.
Ø When folding the seatback of the
right second-row seat, make sure
the storage box is stowed. If the
storage box is not stowed, it could
be damaged.
NOTE
To create a flat luggage compartment space
from the rear of the vehicle to the back of the
front seats, fold the second-row and third-row
seats (page 2-10).
Returning seatbacks to their original
positions
1. Return the seatback to its original
position while raising its lever.
Make sure the seatback is secured by
attempting to lightly move it forward

2. Return the seat-bottom to its original
position and secure it. After returning
the seat-bottom to its original position,
make sure the seat-bottom is secured
by attempting to lightly move it up and
down.
