Before moving the seatback, put
the seat belt in belt guide A to avoid
damaging it.
For safety reasons, carry
out any adjustments when
the vehicle is not being
driven.
The configuration of the two-seat
bench with the small seatback B
pulled down, does not allow the
central seat to be used as it would
be impossible to buckle the seat belt
(belt buckles inaccessible).
The seatback may be folded down to
allow bulky objects to be transported.
To fold down the seatback
Ensure that the front seats are far
enough forward.

leg, a pet, gravel, cloth, toys, etc.).
When refitting the seat-
back, make sure it is cor-
rectly locked in place.
If seat covers are fitted ,
make sure these do not prevent the

positioned correctly.

TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
Always position the heavi-
est items directly on the
floor. Use the lashing
points 1 on the boot floor, if
these are fitted to the vehicle. The
luggage should be loaded in such a
way that no items will be thrown for-
ward and strike the occupants if the
driver has to brake suddenly. Fasten
the rear seat belts, even if the seats
are not occupied.

Always position the objects transported
so that the largest surface is against:
– The rear bench seatback for normal loads (example A).
– The front seatbacks with the rear
seatbacks folded down, as is the case
for maximum loads (example B).
If you have to place objects on the folded
seatback, it is necessary that you lower
the headrests before folding the seat-
back so that it can be folded as flat as
possible against the seat.
