Folding the front seat backrest
Folding the front seat backrest

The front passenger seat backrest can be folded to a horizontal position to make room for a long load. Fold the backrest as follows:

1 Move the seat as far back and down as possible.

2 Adjust the backrest to an upright position.

2 Lift the catches on the rear of the backrest.

3 Without releasing the catches, push the backrest forward.

Move the seat as far forward as possible so that the head restraint slides under the glove compartment.

WARNING
• When transporting long objects, cover sharp edges on the load to help prevent injury to occupants. Secure the load to help prevent shifting during sudden stops.
• When the seat's backrest is returned to the upright position, push and pull it to be sure that it is securely locked in this position.
