BACKREST FOLDING
To fold the backrest over, adjust lever D fig. 19
(movement 1) and push the backrest forwards until it
locks (movement 2); release lever D and, pushing
the backrest, slide the seat forwards (movement 3).
DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES WITH
POSITION MEMORY
(for versions/markets, where provided)
To restore the seat to its original position, slide the
seat backwards pushing the backrest until the seat
locks (movement 4), adjust lever D fig. 19
(movement 5) and raise the backrest (movement 6)
until the locking can be heard.
IMPORTANT Using lever D fig. 19 before locking the
seat in its original position will cause the initial seat
position to be lost. In this case the position of the
seat must be restored through lengthwise adjustment
A fig. 16.
PASSENGER SIDE WITHOUT POSITION
MEMORY
To restore the seat to its original position, slide the
seat backwards pushing the backrest until the desired
position is reached (movement 4), adjust lever D
fig. 19 (movement 5) and raise the backrest
(movement 6) until the locking can be heard.
The type of reattachment manoeuvre has been
chosen to guarantee the safety of the occupant. If an
obstacle is present (e.g. a bag) and the seat cannot
be returned to its original position, the mechanism
reattaches the seat only positioning the backrest
to ensure that the guides are always locked.
