Alfa Romeo 159 オーナーマニュアル

The boot extension to the right makes
it possible to carry two passengers on
the rear seat left-hand side. The boot ex-
tension to the left makes it possible to
carry one passenger on the rear seat
right-hand side.

The boot can be partially (1/3 or 2/3)
or totally extended splitting the rear
seat.

Proceed as follows:
❒ lower completely the rear seat head

restraints;

❒ check that the seat belt is not twist-

ed; 

❒ lift seat back lever A-fig. 6 to un-

lock respectively the left or right sec-
tion of the backrest and tilt the seat
back forward. Lever raising is indi-
cated by a “red band”

IMPORTANT
❒ before performing the operation of

folding the backrest over, make sure
that the rear head restraints are in
the “rest” position (completely low-
ered). The head restraints can be re-
moved to improve the load carrying
capacity;

❒ before tilting the backrest, ensure

that the rear armrest is not lowered.
Otherwise, insert it in its seat (see
section “Internal equipment” in
chapter “Dashboard and controls”).
