2. Place the seat belt so that it doesn't impede the movement of the seatback while tilting it. 3. Pull the left-hand seatback release lever
(inside the luggage compartment or the
release at the base of the rear seat acces -
sible from the rear doors) to fold down the left
side, or the right-hand seatback release lever

rear seat. Each lever folds down the section of the
seatback on the same side.
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.
