Honda CR-V: Reclining the Front Seats

You can recline the seat-backs on the

You can recline the seat-backs on the front seats so they are level with the rear seat cushions, making a large cushioned area. To do this:

EX-L and Canadian EX models

Only the passenger’s side can be level as follows.

1. Adjust the rear seats as far back as possible.

2. Remove the front head restraints, and store them securely.

3. Adjust the front seats forward as far as possible. Pull up the seatback angle adjustment lever and pivot the seat-back backward until it is level with the rear seat cushion.

EX-L and Canadian EX models

The seat-back of the power adjustable driver’s seat cannot be level. Do not push the seat-back down forcibly.

4. Adjust the rear seat-back to the desired position.

Reverse this procedure to return the front and rear seats to the upright position. Make sure you install the head restraints and securely lock the seats before driving.

When you return the seat-back to its upright position, hold the seat-back to keep it from going up too quickly.
