Enlarging cargo area
The rear backrest is split. You can fold down
both seats individually to enlarge the cargo
area.
Reach into the opening and pull forward, refer
to arrow.
Before folding down the rear backrests,
remove the cover caps for the LATCH

When you fold the backrest upright again,
be sure that the catch engages securely.
This causes the red warning field in the recess
to disappear. Otherwise, cargo can be thrown
into the passenger compartment during brak-
ing or evasive maneuvers, thus endangering the
passengers.

to provide optimum protection, please
follow the instructions on page 27 . <

the ski bag and replace it with a tray before fold-
ing the rear backrest forward. The tray is
inserted in the same way as inserting the ski
bag, refer to Inserting ski bag on page
