Either side of the seatback can be folded for more cargo space. Fold a seatback only when the vehicle is not moving.
| Caution Folding a rear seat with the seat belts still fastened may cause damage to the seat or the seat belts. Always unbuckle the seat belts and return them to their normal stowed position before folding a rear seat. |
To fold the seatback:

A tab near the seatback lever raises when the seatback is unlocked.

Repeat the steps to fold the other seatback, if desired.

If equipped, the rear seatbacks can also be folded forward by pulling the levers on the passenger side of the rear cargo area.
