► Insert the head restraint rods into the guides
in the corresponding backrest.
► Push the head restraint fully down.
► Press the lug A to release the head restraint
and push it down.
Rear head restraints
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 head restraint for the centre seat
and those for the outer seats are not
interchangeable.
The electrochrome system uses a sensor that
detects the level of exterior brightness and that
coming from the rear of the vehicle, in order to
automatically and gradually switch between day
and night usage.
Folding the backrests
They have two positions:
Manoeuvring the backrests should only
be done when the vehicle is stationary.
– A high position, for when the seat is in use:
► Pull the head restraint fully up.
– A low position, for stowing, when the seat is
not in use:
► Press the lug A to release the head
restraint and push it down.
First steps:
► Lower the head restraints.
To ensure optimum visibility while
manoeuvring, the mirror automatically
brightens when reverse gear is engaged.
The system is deactivated if the load in the
boot exceeds the height of the load space
cover or if the load space cover has items
placed on it.
► 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).
► Check that the seat belts are free, not
engaged in the buckles. Release them so that
the backrest can be moved.
The rear head restraints can be removed.
Removing a head restraint
► Release the backrest using control 1.
► Tilt the backrest slightly forwards.
► Pull the head restraint fully up.
► Press the lug A to release the head restraint
and remove it completely.
