'01Camry_U (L/O 0009) Fold −down rear seat CAUTION To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, avoid reclining the seatback any more than needed. The seat belts provide maximum protection in a frontal or rear collision when the driver and the passenger are sitting up straight and well back in the seats. If you are reclined, the lap belt may slide past your hips and apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen. Therefore, in the event of a formal collision, the risk of personal injury may increase with increasing recline of the seatback. 3. SEAT LUMBAR ADJUSTING LEVER SUPPORT 1. Pull up the seatback security lock lever 1 to the unlock position. 2. Pull up the lock release button 2. 3. Fold down the seatback. Each seatback may be folded separately. This will enlarge the trunk as far as the seatbacks. See "Luggage stowage precautions" in Section 2 for precautions in loading luggage. NOTICE Make sure the luggage loaded in the enlarged trunk will not damage the webbing of the rear center seat belt when the left seatback is folded down. Pull the lever upward or downward. 2001 MY CAMRY (OM33528U) 33
