How do I fold down the rear seat?

The rear seat of your Accord is designed to fold down onto the seat bottom to provide access to the trunk, as well as to help make carrying larger items easily. Folding down the seat back just requires a few steps:

  1. Make sure to remove any items from the back seat before folding it down.

  2. Store the rear armrest.

  3. Pull the seat release located in the trunk.

  4. Push the seat back from inside the trunk or pull it down from in the cabin.

To lock the seat back in the upright position, just raise it and push firmly until you hear it latch.
