Kia Sorento: Seatback angle (2nd row seat)

To adjust or recline the 2nd-row seatback for passenger comfort in your Kia Sorento:

1. Lift the seatback recliner lever mounted on the outboard shoulder or side base of the 2nd-row seatback frame.
2. Maintain tension on the lever while leaning back or pulling the seatback forward to set your preferred seatback tilt angle.
3. Release the recliner lever completely and push firmly on the backrest to confirm that the internal notch mechanism locks into place.

   Safety Note: The seatback recliner lever MUST snap back to its home position completely for the Kia Sorento rear seat latch mechanism to lock securely.
