maximum loading volume.

❒ remove the rear seat head restraints (where
provided)
❒ check that the seat belts are correctly extended
and not twisted
❒ operate the levers A fig. 58 and B to release the
backrests and guide them down onto the cushion.
IMPORTANT To return the backrest to its correct
position, we recommend operating from the outside
through the doors.
REPOSITIONING THE REAR SEAT
Raise the backrests and push them back until the
locking click of both retainers is heard.
Position the seat belt buckles upwards and set the
cushion to the position of normal use.
IMPORTANT When returning the backrest to its
normal position, make sure that it is correctly
fastened and that you hear the lock click.
Make sure the backrest is properly secured at both
sides to prevent it moving forward in the event
of sharp braking that may cause injuries to
passengers.

To remove the rear shelf, release it from its two side
pins and pull it out.
