Folding the rear seat, 9-5 Wagon
Both the narrow and wide sections of the rear seat can be folded
separately. Folding is facilitated if the front seats are not located too
far back. The wide section cannot be folded separately if a cargo net
is mounted on the rear of the backrest.
1 Make sure that the head restraint is in the down position.
2 Put the safety belts for the outer seat places in their respective
belt clips, which are located near the backrest (see illustration).
3 Lift the seat cushion by pulling the loop located between the
cushion and the backrest.
4 Fold the narrow section (right) of the backrest forward by raising
the opening handle on the right-hand side.
5 Fold the wide section of the backrest forward in the
corresponding manner.
6 Adjust the front seats for optimal driving/passenger comfort.
Alternative location of the parcel shelf if this is removed:
• Folded up on the floor at the rear of the luggage compartment.
• On edge behind the backrests of the front seats.
NOTE
The safety belts for the outer seating positions should be put in
their respective belt clips near the backrest to prevent them being
pinched when the rear seat is raised to the upright position.
