SECOND ROW SEATS (GRAND C4 PICASSO)
Each seat can be folded onto the
fl oor to form a fl at surface, thus
enabling you to modify your vehi-
cle’s interior space.
Folding the seat
From the exterior

 Pull fi rmly upwards on strap C ,
as indicated by the red arrow,
to unlock the seat; maintain the
pressure until the seat is fully
folded.

 Push the backrest slightly
forwards, so that the backrest
pivots, folding onto the seat
base. The assembly will then
lower onto the fl oor. From the boot
(when loading, for example)
You can fold the second-row seat(s)
from the boot, having fi rst folded the
third-row seats.

 Pull on the control D to unlock
the chosen seat, push the back-
rest gently forwards.
To prevent any damage to the mechanism, the control D unclips

D is available for use by third-row
passengers to accelerate their
exit.

Always supervise any move-
ments of seats by children. Rigid plate
Each second-row seat backrest has
a rigid plate attached.
This plate enables you:
- to have a continuous load sur-
face in the boot, whatever the
positions of the seats,
- to avoid having objects sliding under the second-row seats.
Unlocking/Locking the rigid plate

 Slide the latch 1 on the plate
downwards, to unlock.

 Return the plate to the upright
position, then slide the latch 1
upwards, to lock.
