The manual for the vehicle didn't explain how to install a rear facing infant seat. The manufacturer was contacted and could not provide that information. The driver also indicated that all the rear seat folded forward and it appeared that the vehicle was not suitable for use with rear facing child seat (the driver isn't the owner. The vehicle was a garage loaner).
