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

 Pull fi rmly upwards on strap C ,
as indicated by the red arrow, to
unlock the seat; keep pulling un-
til the seat is fully folded.

 Push the backrest slightly for-
wards, 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 strap D to unlock the
chosen seat, push the backrest
gently forwards.
To prevent any damage to the mechanism, the strap D unclips

system fail (strap C ), the strap D
can be used by third-row passen-
gers to facilitate their exit.

Always supervise any movements
of seats by children. Rigid panel
Each second-row seat backrest has
a rigid panel attached.
This panel 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 panel

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

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