back to the greatest possible angle and in the
transport position they are nearly vertical.
Before mounting a child restraint fixing system,
note the instructions, refer to page 52.

Before folding down the rear seat back‐
rests, ensure that path of movement of the
backrests is clear. Especially when the middle
