Load compartment
Folding down rear backrests
9 Warning
Do not stack luggage or other
cargo higher than the front seats.
Do not allow passengers to sit on
the folded seat backrests while the
vehicle is in motion.
Unrestrained load or passengers
on a folded seat backrest can be
thrown around within or ejected
from the vehicle in a sudden stop
or accident. This can result in
serious injuries or death.
To fold down the rear backrest
separately:
Note
Folding a rear seat with the seat
belts still fastened may cause
damage to the seat or the seat belts.
Always unbuckle the seat belts and
return them to their normal stowed
position before folding a rear seat.
1. Push head restraints down by
pressing the catch.
Note
To ensure enough room for rear seat
cushion operation, slide the front
seat forward and adjust the front
seat backrest upright.
2. Pull the release lever on top of the
rear seat backrest and fold it
forward and down.
Storage
3. Put the seat belts of the outboard
seats into the belt guides.
To return the seat backrest to the
original position, pull out the seat belt
from the belt guides and lift seat
backrest up.
Push seat backrest firmly into place.
Make sure the seat belts are not
pinched by the latch.
The center rear seat belt may lock
when you raise the seat backrest. If
this happens, let the belt go back all
the way and start again.
