Injuries can be caused if the rear backrests are folded forwards and backwards carelessly.

● Never fold the rear seat backrest forwards or backwards while the vehicle is in motion.

● Ensure that the seat belt is not trapped or damaged when folding back the rear seat backrest.

● When folding forwards and backwards, keep all hands, fingers, feet and other body parts away from the seat

hinges and seat release mechanism.

● Floor mats or other objects could get caught in the hinges on the rear seat or the backrest. It could cause the rear

seat or the backrest to fail to lock securely when it is returned to the upright position.

● Make sure that each rear seat backrest engages securely in the upright position, otherwise the seat belts for the

rear seats will not work properly. If a seat is occupied and the backrest has not clicked securely into place, the

seat occupant and backrest may move forwards in the event of a sudden braking or driving manoeuvre or during

accidents.

● Adults and children must not use those seats when the rear seat or the backrest is folded forward or is not

engaged securely into place.

WARNING

An insecure backrest can cause severe injuries.

● The backrest is not properly secured if you can see the red marking on the loop→ Fig. 3. Please always ensure

that the red marking is never visible when the seat backrest is in the upright position.

NOTICE

Before folding the backrests, adjust the front seats so that the head restraints or seat cushions do not rub against

the front seats.
