Folding down the rear seat backrests
G009109
Both sections of the rear seat backrest can be
folded down, together or separately, to enable
you to transport long objects.
To fold down one or both sections:
1. Pull the catch on the upper outboard edge
of the backrest upward and forward to
release the backrest lock. A red lock indi-
cator (
A ) is visible when the backrest is not
locked in the upright position.
2. Fold the backrest down.

WARNING
•
The red lock indicator is VISIBLE when
the backrest is NOT locked in position
and hidden when the backrest is cor-
rectly locked in place. When the back-
rest is in the upright position, it must
always be correctly locked in place.
•
When the rear seat is folded down, do
not place heavy objects against the
backs of the front seats. This places a
severe strain on the folded down back-
rest of the rear seat. Be sure to secure
cargo.
•
Cargo must not be stacked higher than
the top of seat backs. This will reduce
the possibility of luggage, etc. becom-
ing projectiles during sudden maneu-
vers, rapid braking or an accident.
