Opel Corsa: Storage / Load compartment
The rear seat backrest is divided into
2/3 to 1/3 parts. Both parts can be
folded down individually to increase
the size of the load compartment.
Before folding rear seat backrests,
execute the following if necessary:
- Move front seats forward if
necessary.
- Remove the load compartment
cover.
- Press and hold the catch to push
the head restraints down.
Folding down/up rear backrests
- Check that the seat belts are not
engaged in the seat belt buckles,
so that the backrests can be
moved.

- Pull the release lever on one or
both outer sides and fold down
the backrests onto the seat
cushion.
- To fold up, raise the backrests
and guide them into an upright
position until they engage
audibly. Make sure that the belts
are positioned correctly and stay
clear of the folding area.

The backrests are properly
engaged when the red marks
near the release levers are no
longer visible.
Warning
When folding up, ensure that
backrests are securely locked in
position before driving. Failure to
do so may result in personal injury
or damage to the load or vehicle in
the event of hard braking or a
collision.

The seat belt of the centre seat could
be blocked when the backrest is
folded up too quickly. To unlock the
retractor, push in the seat belt or pull
it out by approx. 20 mm then release.
Warning

objects in the storage
compartments. Otherwise, the
storage compartment lid could
open and vehicle occupants could
