1. This poster is talking about the Fit's Refresh Mode, where the front seats fully recline to near flat.
2. Refresh for model year 2017: When the new 2017s arrive (model refresh), what will be different.
3. Open your window while moving and the air within the car will be refreshed.
Reading about people setting up refresh..
My girlfriend races bicycles and we use refresh mode often when we have to commute between races and need all the prep time possible if traveling from race to race, between Saturday and Sunday.
Two people is ideal.
1.I man the front seat work.
2. Girlfriend takes the backseat and makes sure it's held at a slight angle.
3. I move the front seat all the way forward.
4. I then start lowering the backrest while matching it up with the rear seat.
5. While I have pressure on the seats I pull the slide handle for the front seat again so it's no longer locked and can slide another 1/4" forward.
6. I finish pressing the seats down at the same time, wedging them together.
They fit perfectly flush and the little bit of wrinkle always comes out when I take it out of refresh mode.
Honda says don't drive in refresh... I agree.. we do it anyway, carefully.

Oh CRAP! On the cell phone mobile site I was reading this thread, then came back to my phone a little bit later and at the bottom of a thread it gives another post and it says 'related threads' or something like that. I just started typing, thinking I was replying to the "related thread" which obviously isn't at all what I ended up doing.
Heck yes it does...

The 2018 model year Fit for North America should look like this. Shame we don't get the exterior paint options.
