Folding the rear seat backrest forwards
WARNING Risk of becoming trapped when adjusting the seats

When you adjust a seat, you may trap yourself or a vehicle occupant.

When adjusting a seat, make sure that no one has any body parts in the sweep of the seat.
WARNING Risk of accident and injury if the rear bench seat/rear seat and seat backrest are not engaged

Rear bench seat, rear seat and seat backrest can fold forwards.

  • As a result, the vehicle occupant is pressed against the seat belt. The seat belt cannot perform its intended protective function and could cause additional injuries.

  • Objects or loads in the boot cannot be restrained by the seat backrest.

Make sure that the rear bench seat, the rear seat and the seat backrest are engaged before every trip.

If the left and right seat backrests are not engaged and locked in place, this will be shown on the multifunction display on the instrument cluster. If the centre seat backrest is not engaged and locked in place, the red lock verification indicator will be visible.

Always ensure that all vehicle occupants have their seat belts fastened correctly and are sitting properly. Particular attention must be paid to children.

If you no longer require the folded-down seat backrest as a loading area, fold the backrest back into place.

Requirements:
  • The area into which the seat backrest is folded is clear.

  • The rear seat backrest head restraints are fully inserted.
