MANUAL ADJUSTMENT (REAR SEATS)
The rear seats allow for three passengers.Rear Seat
Split Folding Rear Seat
The rear seatbacks can be folded forward to
provide an additional storage area.
Extending the right side of the trunk allows you to
carry two passengers on the left part of the rear
seat, while extending the left side allows you to
carry one passenger.
Center Seatback Section Tilting
The center seatback can be tilted forward for a
“Ski Pass-Through” feature from the trunk.
Before tilting the seatback, make sure that the
rear center seat belt is not fastened and that
there are not any objects in the middle part of the
cushion.
Using the release strap, release the center part of
the seatback from its housing and tilt it using the
head restraint.Center Seatback Section Tilting
Center Seatback Section Repositioning
Using the head restraint, lift the center portion
upwards, accompanying it during its movement,
and lightly push to make sure that it is properly
attached. Make sure that the armrest is properly
attached by attempting to move it. If it is not
attached, repeat the operation.
To Lower Rear Seat
Either side of the rear seat can be lowered to
allow for extended cargo space and still maintain
some rear seating room.

NOTE:
Be sure that the front seats are fully upright and
positioned forward. This will allow the rear seat -
back to fold down easily.
1. Completely lower the rear seat head
restraints

Ú
page 36.
2. Place the seat belt so that it doesn't impede the movement of the seatback while tilting it.
WARNING!
Do not pile luggage or cargo higher than the
top of the seatback. This could impair visibility
or become a dangerous projectile in a sudden
stop or collision.
WARNING!
The center rear seat provides minimum space
and limited occupant use. The center rear seat
has no LATCH child restraint anchorage
system and may not be used for
LATCH-equipped child car seats. See

Ú
page 158 for further information on the
LATCH anchorage system.
The center rear seat has no adjustable head
restraint. No person should sit in the center
rear seat if the top of the seatback is below
the top of the person's ear or if the lap/
shoulder belt cannot be worn in the proper
position as described. See

Ú
page 144 for
lap/shoulder operating instructions. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious
injury or death in the event of a collision.

3. From inside the luggage compartment, operate lever 1 to tilt the left part or lever 2 to
tilt the right part of the seatback; it will auto -
matically tilt forward. If necessary, assist the
seatback during the initial stage of tilting.
Seat Release Levers

NOTE:
You may experience deformation in the seat
cushion from the seat belt buckles if the seats are
left folded for an extended period of time. This is
normal and by simply unfolding the seats to the
open position, over time the seat cushion will
return to its normal shape. To Raise Rear Seat
Raise the rear seatback and lock it into place. If
interference from the cargo area prevents the
seatback from fully locking, you will have difficulty
returning the seat to its proper position.

NOTE:
Make sure the seat belts are in the front of the
seatback, and that they are not twisted, or
trapped behind the seatbacks.
Center Seatback Lowering
The center seatback can be folded forward for a
“Ski Pass-Through” feature from the trunk. Before
lowering the center seatback, make sure that the
rear center seat belt is not fastened and that
there are not any objects in the middle part of the
cushion.

Using the release strap, pull upward to release the
seatback and lower the center seatback forward.

Center Seatback Lowering
Center Seatback Repositioning
Using the head restraint, raise the center
seatback, and lightly push to make sure that it is
properly locked into place. If the seatback is not
locked, repeat the operation.

2 — Right Side Seat Release Lever
WARNING!

Be certain that the seatback is securely locked
into position. If the seatback is not securely
locked into position the seat will not provide the
proper stability for child seats and/or passen -
gers. In the event of a collision, an improperly
latched seatback could result in serious injury
or death.

WARNING!
Be certain that the seatback is securely
locked into position. If the seatback is not
securely locked into position the seat will not
provide the proper stability for child seats
and/or passengers. In the event of a collision,
an improperly latched seatback could result in
serious injury or death.

detected, the system intervenes and the
movement of the sunroof is immediately reversed
into opening.
RE-INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE
Automatic operation of the sunroof must be
re-initialized in case of faulty sunroof operation. It
may also be necessary to re-initialize the sunroof
after the vehicle’s battery has been disconnected
and then reconnected.

NOTE:
The anti-pinch safety device is deactivated during
the re-initialization procedure.
WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle,
or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Never
leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children. Do not
leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with
keyless ignition in the ON/RUN position.
Occupants, particularly unattended children,
can become entrapped by the power sunroof
while operating the power sunroof switch.
Such entrapment may result in serious injury
or death.
In a collision, there is a greater risk of being
thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof.
You could also be seriously injured or killed.
Always fasten your seat belt properly and
make sure all passengers are also properly
secured.
Do not allow small children to operate the
sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other body
parts, or any object, to project through the
sunroof opening. Injury may result.
CAUTION!
Do not open the sunroof if a luggage roof rack
or crossbars are fitted. Do not open the
sunroof if there is snow or ice on it: you may
damage it.
