●Do not allow anyone to sit on a folded seatback or in the luggage compartment while driving.

seat and cannot be used.

caught when folding the rear seat- backs.
●Adjust the position of the front seats before folding down the rear seat-backs so that the front seats do not
interfere with the rear seatbacks when folding down the rear seat-backs.

●Make sure that the seatback is securely locked in position by lightly pushing it back and forth.
If the seatback is not securely locked,
the red marking will be visible on the
seatback lock release lever. Make
sure that the red mark is not visible.
●Check that the seat belts are not twisted or caught in the seatback.
If the seat belt gets caught between
