Removing a head restraint
The folding of the backrest is
accompanied by a slight lowering of the
corresponding cushion.
► Pull the head restraint fully up.
► Press the lugs A to release the head restraint
and remove it completely.
To obtain a flat surface, it is necessary to
place the adjustable boot floor in the high
position.
When the backrest is released, the red
indicator in the release grip is visible.

controls:
– A grip 1 on the outer edge of the backrest.
– A lever 2 on the boot side trim (depending on
version).
Never drive with passengers seated at
the rear when the head restraints are
removed; the head restraints should be in
place and in the high position.
The backrests should only be
manoeuvred when the vehicle is
stationary.
The head restraint for the central
seat and those for the side seats
are not interchangeable.
First steps:
► Lower the head restraints.

► If necessary, move the front seats forward.
► Check that no person or object might interfere
with the folding of the backrests (e.g. clothing,
luggage).
