Seatback folding safety feature

  • When a certain amount of force is detected when the 3rd row seats are folded or unfolded, they automatically return or stop working. However, these functions may not work if the sensed resistance is less than a certain force or if the seat is almost folded or unfolded. Also, if a strong impact is applied to the seat, the object detection function may operate even if no obstacle is placed.

  • If the object detection function operates several times while the seat operates once, folding and unfolding may be repeated continuously and the operation may stop. In this case, after checking that objects are caught, operate the switch again to check that there is no problem.

  • The angle of the seatback may change when the seat's object detection function is activated. Press the 3rd row seat fold/unfold switch to operate it once to reset the seatback angle to the normal angle.

WARNING

  • Do not intentionally place any part of your body or object within the operating range to check the object detection function while the third row seat is operating.

  • For safety, when folding or unfolding the 3rd row seats, make sure that there are no body parts or objects around, such as hands or heads, before operating. In addition, to prevent damage to the seat belt, insert it into the storage holder and store the buckle in the storage area inside the seat before operating it.

  • If a child seat is installed on the 3rd row seat, remove it and operate it.

  • If an object is placed on the 3rd row seat cushion, remove the object and operate.

  • Raise the seatback of the 2nd row seats to avoid interference with the front seats, and if necessary, move the 2nd row seats forward before operating.
