You  can  use  the  front  passenger’s  seat-
back  as  a  temporary  table  only  when  the
vehicle  is  stopped.
CAUTION
To  avoid  serious  injury:
! Do  not  set  up  the  seatback  table
while  the  vehicle  is  moving.
! Do  not  sit  on  the  seatback  table.
NOTICE
To  prevent  damage  to  the  seat,  avoid
putting  heavy  loads  on  the  temporary
table.
CAUTION
When  returning  the  seatback  to  the
upright  position,  make  sure  the  seat-
back  is  securely  locked  by  pushing
forward  and  rearward  on  the  top  of
the  seatback.  Failure  to  do  so  will
prevent  seat  belt  from  operating  prop-
erly.
Lower  the  head  restraints  to  the  lowest
position.  Pull  up  the  lock  release  button
and  fold  the  seatback  down.
Each  seatback  can  be  folded  separately.
This  will  enlarge  the  luggage  compartment
as  far  as  the  seatbacks.  See  “—Stowage
precautions”  on  page  207  in  Section  2  for
precautions  when  loading  luggage.
