Rear Seat Access

~1min read

To access the rear seat from the driver's or front passenger's side, pull up the lock lever located on the side of the seatback, or pull up the seatback adjustment lever. The seatback will tilt forward and move forward, making it easier for passengers to get into the rear seat.

After a passenger has taken a seat in the rear, push the seatback to return it to its original position. You may need to readjust the seatback angle and move the seat forward or backward before getting into the front seat. Before getting in, make sure the seat is locked securely in the desired position.
