Fold–down rear seat
(A) FOLDING DOWN REAR SEAT
1. To unlock the seatback, pull the le-
ver in the trunk.
2. Fold down the seatback.
Each seatback may be folded separately.
On vehicles with built–in child restraint
system, only the left seatback can be
folded down.
This will enlarge the trunk as far as the
seatbacks. See “Luggage stowage precau-
tions” in Section 2 for precautions in load-
ing luggage.
NOTICE
Make sure the luggage loaded in the
enlarged trunk will not damage the
webbing of the rear center seat belt
when the left seatback is folded
down.
CAUTION
When returning the seatback to the
upright position:
Make sure the seat belts are not
twisted or caught in the seatback
and are arranged in the proper
position and are ready to use.
Make sure the seatback is securely
locked by pushing forward and rear-
ward on the top of the seatback.
Failure to do so will prevent seat
belt from operating properly.
