► When folding the seatbacks forward from behind, an adult should perform the operation, making sure there is no one in the rear seat. The seatback could fall forward suddenly and trap the person between it and the seat cushion, causing a serious injury.
It is difficult to see the rear seat from behind, so be especially careful of small children.
► After returning the seatbacks to their upright positions, make sure that the seatbacks lock in place and are firmly secured.
Also check to be sure that the rear seat belts are in front of the seatbacks, and not caught behind the seatbacks.
