Lowering the rear seat backrest
Both rear seat backrests can be tipped for-
ward, together or individually. This makes it
easier to transport long objects.
Fold the rear seat backrests as follows:
First check that the head restraints have
not been lowered.
Pull the handle in the cargo area as shown
in the illustration.
Fold the backrest forward.
A hatch in the right-hand rear backrest allows
you to transport long objects such as skis
and planks. Open the hatch as follows:
Fold the left-hand backrest and centre
armrest forwards. See page 91.
Release the hatch by pushing the catch
upward while folding the hatch forward.
Tip the backrest back into position with
the hatch open.
WARNING
Always secure the load. During heavy brak-
ing the load may otherwise shift, causing
personal injury.
Cover sharp edges with something soft.
Turn off the engine and apply the parking
brake when loading or unloading long ob-
jects! You may accidentally knock the gear
lever or gear selector with the load and
cause a gear to engage and the car to move
off.
