Seats, rear
The rear seat backrest and the outer seat
head restraints can be folded. The centre seat
head restraint can be adjusted to suit the
height of the passenger.
Head restraint, centre seat, rear
Adjust the head restraint according to pas-
senger height so that the whole of the back of
the head is covered if possible. Slide it up as
required.
To lower the head restraint again, the button
(see illustration) must be pressed while the
restraint is carefully moved down.
The head restraint can be adjusted in five dif-
ferent positions.
NOTE
Do not sit in the centre seat with the head
restraint in fully lowered position.
Manual lowering of the outer head
restraints, rear seat
Pull the locking handle closest to the head
restraint to fold the head restraint forward.
The head restraint is moved back manually.
WARNING
The head restraint must be in locked posi-
tion after being folded up.
Lowering the rear seat backrest
IMPORTANT
When the backrest is to be folded, the rear
seat cup holder must not be open and
there must be no objects in the rear seat.
Nor may the seat belts be connected. Oth-
erwise there is a risk of damage to the rear
seat upholstery.
NOTE
The front seats may need to be pushed
forwards, and/or the backrests adjusted
upwards, in order that the rear backrests
can be folded forward fully.
•
Both sections can be folded separately.
•
If the entire backrest is to be folded then
the different sections should be folded
separately.
