Subaru Forester: Rear seats / Armrest (if equipped)

To lower the armrest, pull down the top
edge of the armrest.
WARNING
- To avoid serious injury, passengers
must never sit on the center
armrest.
- When using the seatbelt, do not
allow it to become tangled with
an arm rest. The seatbelt will not
perform its original function in an
emergency and it may cause a
serious injury.
WARNING
When you fold down the seatback,
check that there are no
passengers or objects on the rear
seat. Not doing so creates a risk
of injury or property damage if
the seatback suddenly folds
down...
