■Switch-operated “Front, Fold & Return” Seat
●If any seat adjustment switch or driving position memory switch is operated
after the seat is moved to the forward and fold position using the “Front, Fold &
Return” seat switch, the seat cannot be returned using the “Front, Fold & Return”
seat switch. Use a switch other than the “Front, Fold & Return” seat switch to
return the seat.
●The switch-operated “Front, Fold & Return” seat cannot operate when:
• A person or item of luggage is on the seat or the seat belt is fastened.
•The vehicle is moving.

• The “Front, Fold & Return” seat switch is pressed again.
• Any seat adjustment switch or driving position memory switch is pressed.
• A person enters the seat or an item of luggage is put on the seat (during for-
ward movement only).

seatback from locking in place.
If the seatback will not lock, press and hold the seatback angle switch forward for a
few seconds to change the memorized seat position. Raise the seatback by hand
