WARNING
Do not drive with the seatbackunlocked:
The seatback plays an important role
in your protection in a vehicle.
Leaving the seatback unlocked is
dangerous as it can allow passengers
to be ejected or thrown around and
baggage to strike occupants in a
sudden stop or collision, resulting in
severe injury. After adjusting the
seatback at any time, even when there
are no other passengers, rock the
seatback to make sure it is locked in
place.
Never allow a passenger to sit or standon the folded seatback while thevehicle is moving:
Driving with a passenger on the folded
seatback is dangerous. Allowing a
child to sit up on the folded seatback
while the vehicle is moving is
particularly dangerous. In a sudden
stop or even a minor collision, a child
not in a proper seat or child-restraint
system and seat belt could be thrown
forward, back or even out of the
vehicle resulting in serious injuries or
death. The child in the baggage area
could be thrown into other occupants
and cause serious injury.
Never give the car keys to children anddo not allow them to play in thevehicle:
Playing with the folding rear seats is
dangerous. Once the seatbacks are
back up, a child in the trunk would
not be able to get out the way they had
entered. If you have small children,
keep the seatbacks locked (sedan).
NOTE
When returning a rear seat to its
original position, also replace the seat
belt to its normal position. Verify that
the seat belt pulls out and retracts.
qSplit-Folding Rear Seatback (Sedan)
The seatbacks can be folded down to
provide more space in the trunk.
