Never allow passengers to ride in the loadspace. In a collision, people riding in the loadspace are more likely to be seriously injured or killed. Do not allow anyone to travel in any area of the vehicle that is not equipped for passengers. Be sure that everyone in the vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
In a collision or sudden stop, unsecured objects could be thrown inside the vehicle, striking and injuring occupants. Always properly store and secure cargo and other objects in the vehicle.
Make sure that when a seatback is raised, the locking mechanism is fully engaged. An unsecured seatback may not properly support an occupant during a collision or sudden stop.
When raising the rear seats, make sure the seat belts are correctly routed into the seat belt guides and not trapped behind the seats. An incorrectly routed seat belt may not properly restrain an occupant during a collision or sudden stop.
Make sure the head restraints are raised to the correct position before the seats are used by a passenger. The head restraint must be positioned correctly to restrain rearward movement of the head in a collision.
Before folding or raising rear seats, make sure any rear fitted screens are not in the movement path of the folding seat. Damage may occur to the seat or the screen as a result of the two colliding.
The split-fold rear seat can be folded completely to accommodate large loads, or partially folded to accommodate loads while retaining seating for passengers.

For vehicle’s with executive class rear seats, press and release the appropriate button.
Standard electric rear seats are disabled if the rear seatbacks are moved through a full fold and raise sequence more than three times in quick succession. The feature is re-enabled after 2 minutes.
If the feature detects the rear seatbacks will clash with the front seats, it automatically moves the front seats. The anti-clash feature is called intelligent seat cargo mode. See INTELLIGENT SEAT CARGO MODE.
The electric rear seats can also be folded using a smartphone app and the touchscreen. See INCONTROL OVERVIEW and REMOTE SEATS.
Before activating intelligent seat cargo mode, make sure that the area surrounding the seats is clear of obstructions. All occupants should be clear of moving parts. Personal injury may result if any part of the body is caught in a moving seat.
Intelligent seat cargo mode automatically moves the front seats if it detects a clash will occur when folding the electric rear seatbacks. In order for intelligent seat cargo mode to operate, the following conditions must be in place:
Vehicles with executive class rear seats: The loadspace button is pressed and released.
When the fold sequence is completed, Intelligent Seat Cargo Mode automatically returns the front seats as close as possible to their original positions, depending on the proximity of the rear folded seats.
On vehicles fitted with executive class rear seats, center rear seat belt buckles may become lodged in between the seat cushions following intelligent seat cargo mode operation. If the seat buckles become lodged, retrieve them from the lodged position in between the seat cushions to make sure they are correctly repositioned for seat belt operation. If a buckle cannot be retrieved manually, move the seat cushions electronically to dislodge the buckle. EXECUTIVE CLASS SEATS.

Activate the passenger seat away function. See PASSENGER SEAT AWAY.
When a seat returns to the upright position, it should lock into place automatically. If lock mode is not detected, the seat will move forward three times and attempt to lock. Keep clear from the seat during this process. If the seat does not lock after the third attempt, it folds fully down into cargo mode. Check for any obstructions and attempt to fold again. If the seat does not return to the fully upright position after this procedure, contact a retailer/authorized repairer.
If any items are grayed out on the touchscreen, the operation is inhibited. Refer to, and follow, the on-screen instructions.
Check for and remove any obstructions should electric seat movement stop unexpectedly during folding or raising.
Once any obstructions have been removed, continue the seat movement by pressing the appropriate button.
If no obstruction can be found, and seat movement cannot be carried out, contact a retailer/authorized repairer.
