General information
The cargo area can be enlarged by folding down the rear seat backrest.
The rear seat backrest is divided at a ratio of 40– 20–40.
Danger of pinching
Before folding down the rear seat backrests, ensure that the area of movement of the backrests is clear. In particular, ensure that no one is located in the area of movement and that no one reaches into the area of movement of the rear seat backrests when the middle section is folded down. Otherwise, injury or damage may result.
Locking the backrest
Before carrying persons in the rear, engage and thereby lock the backrests, or the restraining effect of the safety belts during an accident may be limited.
Retract the head restraints if
necessary
before backrests are folded down
With folding head restraints, fold in the head restraints before folding down the backrests, or damage may result.
