Folding the front passenger’s
seatback
To fold the front passenger’s seatback flat
for extra storage length when transporting
long items:1. Slide the seat to the rearmost position. Lif t up on the recline lever, located on
the outside edge of the seat, and allow
the seatback to fold forward as far as it
will go. 2. Once the seatback is released, it will
enable you to fold the front passenger
seatback flat over the seat cushion.
3. To return the front passenger’s seat to a seating position, lif t up on the seat-
back and push it up to an upright posi-
tion. Then pull up on the recline lever
and lean the seatback to a proper seat-
ing position. Release the lever to lock
the seatback in position.
WARNING
∙ If you fold the front passenger’s seat-back flat forward to carry longer ob-
jects, be sure this cargo is properly se-
cured and not near an air bag. In a
crash, an inflating air bag might force
that object toward a person. This
could cause severe injury or even
death. Secure objects away from the
area in which an air bag would inflate.
For additional information, refer to
“Precautions on SRS” in this section.
∙ Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo area or on the front passenger’s
seat when it is in the fold-down posi-
tion. Use of these areas by passengers
could result in serious injury or death
in an accident or sudden stop.
CAUTION
Do not apply a load to the back of the
table if it is not fully horizontal. Doing so
may cause deformation/malfunction.
NOTE:
The belt buckle must be in the forward-
most position for the seat to be folded to
avoid premature aging.
