Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks / tekst over kinderzitje
English term or phrase: locked upright
Context:

"If your car has a folding rear seat, ensure it is correctly locked upright."

Het is niet duidelijk of "locked" betrekking heeft op de autozetel of op de auto zelf, ik twijfel daarom tussen "ingeklapt" en "vergrendeld" (in rechtopstaande/ verticale positie).

rechtop vastgezet
Explanation:
Nee, auto's kunnen wel op slot gezet worden, maar dat past hier helemaal niet. De achterbank mag niet plat liggen, maar moet rechtop staan.
'Rechtop vergrendeld' kan natuurlijk ook.

agree  Henk Peelen: vermoedelijk bedoelt men de rugleuning van de achterbank, maar dat staat er niet (en er zijn ook auto's waar je de hele achterbank voorover kunt klappen).
