Folding down the center second-row seat

You can fold the center second-row seat to get more stowing space.

 Important

Before folding the seats, make sure:
  • there are no objects on the seats.
  • the seat belts are not buckled.
  • there is enough space to fold the seats down. If needed, move the front seats forward.

 Warning

If any of the rear seats are folded down, they must not be in contact with the front seats. This can impede the safety of other occupants.
Strap on the side of the seat cushion

Pull the strap on the side of the seat.

The backrest releases and tilts forwards slightly.
Guide the backrest down to its folded position.
Press down on the backrest to lock it into place.

When you want to raise the seat again, use the same strap on the side of the seat to unlock the backrest. Then manually push it to its upright position. Make sure the backrest locks into place.

 Important

After adjusting, folding or raising a seat, make sure all parts of the seat are properly locked in place.
