When the backrest is engaged in its upright position, it can be locked -C- with the emergency key link►. This prevents access to the luggage compartment from inside the vehicle. The luggage compartment can only be extended when the backrest is not locked.
- Make sure that the rear backrest is securely locked in position so that the seat belt can provide proper protection in the rear seats.
- The rear backrest must always be securely latched so that objects stored in the luggage compartment will not fly forward during sudden braking.
- Be careful when releasing and folding down the backrest! Carelessness when folding down the backrest could result in injuries.
- To prevent damage to the front seats, please check that the front seats are not too close to the rear seats before folding down the rear backrest.
- If you need to adjust the front seats when the rear backrest is folded forwards, please take care to avoid damaging the rear head restraints.
- Lower the rear head restraints before you fold down the backrest link► – risk of damage!
- When returning the backrest to an upright position, make sure that the seat belts for the outer rear seats are not caught up and damaged.
