8.4.3.1. Folding of a seat

The remote lever or the button (only "hatch-back") allow to put automatically a seat for expansion of a cargo compartment.
When folding seatbacks it is necessary to consider the following:
– if the car costs on descent, then backs of a back seat can deviate forward more sharply in comparison with the parking on the horizontal platform;
– if the car costs on rise, then backs of a back seat can not develop. If the back does not develop independently after release of a clamp, pull for the upper edge of a back from interior of the car and lower it down.
Unfasten a zone strap of the seat belt established on the central place of a back seat.
Having checked whether the back seat is free, open a back lifting door and pull for handles of clamps (handles are located with left and on the right side of the luggage compartment).
The unblocked seatback develops under a body weight forward.

Further pressing a seatback leads to folding of hinges of a pillow of a seat, and the seatback is displaced forward in the lower dredging.
