Warning
- Adjust the seat and ensure it locks into position before driving. Use caution when adjusting the seat. Uncontrolled or careless adjustments could lead to injury.
- Long objects must always be securely tied down to help prevent injury or damage in the event of sudden braking.
- Always turn off the engine and apply the parking brake when loading or unloading the vehicle.
- Put the gear selector in P to help prevent the gear selector from being inadvertently moved.
Important
When the backrest is folded down, make sure there are no objects in the rear seat, and the seat belts are not buckled. Otherwise there is a risk of damage to the upholstery.
Important
Note
The rear seat must be in the upright position when private locking is activated in order for the seats to lock. Seats in the folded-down position will not lock.
Note
The front seats may need to be pushed forward and/or the backrest adjusted so that the rear seat backrests can be fully lowered.
Folding down the backrests
The vehicle must be stationary and at least one of the rear doors must be open before a backrest can be folded down.
Make sure that the rear seat is unoccupied and that there are no objects on the seat.
Push down the center seat's head restraint manually.
Press and hold one of the buttons located on the left side of the parcel shelf in the rear window.
The backrest lock will release but the backrest will remain in the same position. The head restraint will fold down automatically.
Manually fold the backrest down to its horizontal position.
Folding up the backrest
To fold up the backrest to the upright position manually:
Move the backrest upward/rearward.
Press the backrest until it locks into position.
Fold up the head restraints manually.
Adjust the center head restraint if necessary.
Warning
Make sure that the rear seat backrest and head restraint are locked securely in place after the seat is folded up.
The head restraints at the outer seats must always be raised when there is a passenger in one of these spots of the rear seat.
