Before folding, remove items from the seats and the rear
footwell. To allow the rear seats to fold completely flat,
you may need to move the front seats forward. To fold a
rear seat, push the corresponding button on the back of
the seat.
You can also fold the rear seats fully forward by pressing
the corresponding switch located on the left side of the
rear trunk. Pressing the switch causes the seat to
unlatch. You can then push it downward to lay it fully
flat.
To return the seats to their upright position, pull
upwards until it locks into place. To confirm that the seat
is locked in the upright position, try pulling it forward.
NOTE:
Driving with the rear seats folded may increase
noise in the cabin area (for example, you may hear
vibration sounds coming from the rear of the vehicle
such as the trunk, suspension, etc.).
CAUTION:
While raising a rear seat back, hold the
seat belt out of the way to ensure that the seat
belt is not trapped behind the backrest or caught
in the seat latch.
WARNING:
Always ensure that the seats are
locked in their upright position by attempting to
push it forward or rearward, ensuring the latch is
fully engaged. Failure to do so can increase the
risk of injury.
Head Supports
The front seats include integrated head supports that
you cannot adjust.
The rear outboard seating positions include an
adjustable head support that can be raised/lowered or
removed. The head support should always be raised and
locked into position (so that the center is aligned with
the center of the occupant's head) when occupied by a
passenger that is not in a child safety seat.
Lift the head support to the desired position. To lower
the head support, press and hold the button on the base
of the outer post while pushing down on the head
support.
To remove a head support:
1. Lift the headrest to raise it.
2. Press and hold the button located at the base of the
right post.
3. Insert a short, flat object (such as a small flat-head
screwdriver) into the opening on the inside base of
the opposite post and pull the head support upward.
