Rear Seats
Rear Seat FoldingWARNING: Secure objects carried
within the vehicle. In an impact or
sudden maneuver, unsecured objects
can cause death or serious injury.
The split rear seat allows you to fold forward
all or part of the seat to increase the load-
carrying area. Before folding down a seat,
remove any items on the seat or in the rear
footwell and adjust the rear head restraints to
the lowest position. See Rear head restraints.
The rear seat release handles are located in the trunk. To fold down a rear seat, pull the
corresponding release handle. After you feel
the latch release, fold the seat forward from
inside the passenger compartment.
Note: To fold down the complete rear seat, use
both release handles.

it back until it locks in place. Make sure the seat back is locked in place by trying to pull
the seat back forward.
WARNING: When the seat back is in
its upright position, make sure the
locking mechanism fully engages. If
the locking mechanism does not fully
engage, the risk of death and serious
injury increases in an accident or
heavy braking.
Note: When returning the seat to its upright
position, make sure the seat belts are not
trapped behind the backrest.
Rear Seat Pass-through
For your convenience when carrying long, narrow items, the rear seat has a pass-
through hatch. This hatch allows you to carry
long items without having to fold the rear seat
forward.
To open the pass-through hatch: 1. Fold the rear seat armrest down.
2. Pull down on the latch and fold the pass-through hatch panel forward onto
the rear armrest.
To close the hatch, push the panel up until
the latch engages.
CAUTION: When passing items
through the hatch into the vehicle,
make sure not to damage the
upholstery on the seats and the
armrests.

rear center seatback, which only has a heater function in the seat base.
Control the seat heating in the Pilot Panel
(select
> REAR), the Rear Center Console
Display (RCCD), or the capacitive buttons on
either side of the RCCD.

Head Restraints
Correct Head Restraint PositionWARNING: In the event of a collision,
you want the head restraint to
contact your head first, not your neck.
Improper positioning can result in
serious injury, paralysis, or death.WARNING: All occupants, including
the driver, must adjust the headrest to
the proper position before operating
the vehicle or sitting in the vehicle

For an occupied rear seat, press the button
at the base of the head restraint and move

Seat Belts
Seat Belt WarningsWARNING: It is the driver

belts in use to make sure they are correctly
latched. Remove any heavy objects (such as
a briefcase) from any unoccupied seats. If the
indicator remains on, contact a Lucid Service
Center .
In addition to the seat belt reminder, a graphic
of the seat layout displays on the left side of
the Cockpit Panel. The seat layout displays the detected occupied seats and the seat beltuse status.
When the seat location displays a green
indicator, it indicates that the seat
position is occupied and the seat belt
is fastened.
When a seat location displays a red seat
belt indicator, it indicates that the seat
position is occupied but the seat belt is
not fastened.
Using Seat Belts When PregnantWARNING: Pregnant women must
wear seat belts to protect themselves
and their unborn child.WARNING: Do not place anything
between you and the seat belt to
cushion the impact in the event of a
collision.
Wear the lap portion of the seat belt as low
as possible across the hips, not the waist.
Position the shoulder part of the belt between
the breasts and to the side of the abdomen.
Make sure that the seat belt has no slack and
is not twisted.
For any concerns about wearing seat belts,
consult with your physician.
Seat Belt Pre-tensionersWARNING: If a seat belt pre-tensioner
activates, it must be replaced. After
an impact or collision, even if there is
no obvious damage, always have the
seat belts checked and (if necessary)
replaced by a Lucid Service Center.
The seat belts for the front and outboard
rear seating positions are equipped with pre )tensioners that work either independently
or in conjunction with the airbags in a severe
front or side-impact collision, depending upon
the severity of a crash.
Note: A pre-tensioner activates if the seat belt
is already buckled at the time of the collision.
The pre-tensioners automatically retract the
seat belts, reducing any slack in both the lap
and shoulder portions of the belts, thereby
reducing the forward movement of the seat
belt wearer.
The seat belt pre-tensioners can only activate
once before a Lucid Service Center must
replace them.
If a pre-tensioner activates, the
airbag warning indicator displays on
the Cockpit Panel.
Note: Even if the pre-tensioners activate, the
seat belts still function as restraints. Continue
to wear the seat belts if the vehicle remains in
a drivable condition.

Testing Seat BeltsWARNING: Regularly check the
condition of all seat belts. Replace
seat belts if you notice damage
to the belt straps, fittings, retractor
mechanisms, or buckles. Damaged
seat belts may not operate properly in
the event of an accident.WARNING: When seat belts are not
in use, they should be fully retracted
and not hanging loose. If a seat belt does not fully retract, contact a Lucid
Service Center.
There are three tests you should perform
when checking seat belts:
1. With the seat belt fastened, give the shoulder belt strap at the buckle a quick
upward pull. The buckle should remain
securely locked.
2. With the seat belt unfastened, unreel the belt to its limit. Check that it
unreels smoothly with no snatches or
snags. Visually check the belt for wear.
Allow the belt to retract, checking that
retraction is smooth and complete.
3. With the belt half unreeled, hold the strap and quickly try to pull
more strap out. The mechanism must lock automatically and prevent further
unreeling.
If any issues arise during these tests, contact
a Lucid Service Center immediately to have
the seat belt replaced.
