Load Carrying FOLDING THE REAR SEATS
*
DO NOT carry objects on
the rear shelf - they could
become dangerous projectiles
in the event of an accident.
DO NOT carry unsecured equipment, tools or luggage that
could move, causing personal injury in the event of an
accident, or emergency manoeuvre - where possible, use the
seat belts to secure luggage carried on seats.
Ensure that the rear seat
backrests are securely
latched in the upright position
when the seat is in use and
when loads are carried in the
luggage area behind.
To increase luggage space, press either of the release catches
(see top inset) and fold the seat backrest forward.
Note that only one of the backrest release catches needs to be
depressed in order to fold the seat.
‘Latch secure’ indicators
The release catches pop up when the rear seat is folded
forward, revealing a red band around the catch.
Care point: When returning the
seats to the upright position,
ensure that the seatbelts are not
trapped.
When returning the seat to the upright position, ensure that
the catches drop back into the backrest and that the red band
(arrowed in lower inset) is no longer visible - this confirms
that the backrest is secure.
