Folding down the rear seat backrest<br />
Opening<br />
You can fold down the rear seat backrest to<br />
transport light objects in the rear <strong>without</strong> damaging<br />
the seats. Depending on the vehicle<br />
equipment, the mounting points for the cargo<br />
area net* are found on the back of the seat<br />
backrest. To unlock the rear seat backrest:<br />
press the button on the driver's or the opposite<br />
side.<br />
Closing<br />
Return the rear seat backrest to the upright<br />
seating position and engage it.<br />
When returning the backrest to its seating<br />
position, make sure that the seat's locking<br />
mechanism engages properly. Otherwise,<br />
cargo could be thrown around in the event of<br />
sharp braking or swerving and endanger the<br />
occupants.<<br />

1. Fold open the holder by pressing the<br />
button.<br />
2. Press the handles of the bag onto the<br />
holder from above.<br />

suitable objects from the holders; otherwise,<br />
braking maneuvers and swerving, for<br />
example, may lead to a safety hazard due to<br />
objects flying about the passenger compartment.<br />
Only transport heavy luggage in the<br />
cargo area if it has been appropriately<br />
secured.<<br />

down or the insert has been removed,<br />

compartment; otherwise, braking maneuvers<br />
and swerving, for example, may lead to a safety<br />
hazard due to objects flying about the passenger<br />
compartment. Only transport heavy luggage<br />
in the cargo area if it has been appropriately<br />
secured.<<br />
