FOLDING AND RAISING THE REAR
SEATS
The split fold rear seat of 5 door models can be
folded completely, or partially at 60/40 split, to
accommodate loads and still retain seating for
passengers.
Ensure that when the backrest is
raised the locking mechanism is fully
engaged. If the backrests are not fully
locked in place, red markers will be
visible around the backrest buttons.
To fold part or all of the seat:
1. Fully lower the head restraints.
REAR SEAT HEAD RESTRAINTS
2. Press either seat backrest release button,
then fold the appropriate backrest fully
forward.
Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of the head restraint is above the
centre line of the head. An incorrectly
adjusted head restraint increases the
risk of death or serious injury in the
event of a collision.
Raising a folded seat is a reversal of the folding
process.
When the seat back is fully raised and locked
into position, the release/locking button will
pop up.
Do not drive or carry passengers with
the head restraint removed from an
occupied seat. The absence of a
correctly adjusted head restraint
increases the risk of neck injury in the
event of a collision.
With the Coupe 3 door models, if a fold is
required, the smaller part must be folded first.
The larger part can then be folded.
Raising the Coupe folded seats is a reversal of
the folding process. Ensure that the
release/locking button relocates into the
correct position.
Always store a removed restraint
securely.
