Opening the ski hatch

You can use the ski hatch to stow long, thin objects in the vehicle, such as lumber or skis. This way, you don't need to fold the seats down.

The ski hatch is located in the middle of the rear seats. You can access it via the trunk or the passenger compartment.

 Warning

Any objects placed in the back of the vehicle must not be in contact with the front seats. This can impede the safety of other occupants.
Open the trunk and grasp the handle located in the middle of the rear seats.
Pull the handle and fold the hatch down.

Go to the back of the passenger compartment and fold the rear seat armrest forward.

Make sure nothing is obstructing the hatch opening.
