NOTE: If the backrest is folded down for prolonged periods, the seat belt locks could be covered (i.e.,
with a towel) to help avoid marks on the backrest upholstery.

Folding rear seat (wagon)
The rear seat is split into two sections so that each section can be folded independently.
● Straighten front backrests if they are tilted too far to the rear.
● Pull the strap to lift the rear seat cushion and swing the cushion up and toward the back of the front
seats.
● The outboard head restraints must be lowered before the backrest is folded down (see inset
illustration above):
1 - pull straight up, 2 - fold forward
● Push the center head restraint straight down if it has raised.
● Move the backrest release lever rearward and fold the backrest down.
