Folding the Second-Row Seats

The second-row seatbacks can be folded 
down and used as tables when the vehicle 
is not moving.

To fold the seatback

1. Put the buckle in the pocket of the seat 

bottom.

2. Raise the reclining lever and lower the 

seatback forward. Make sure the 
seatback is locked.

To return the seatback to the upright 
position

Raise the reclining lever and lift the 
seatback upright. Attempt to move the 
seatback forward and backward to make 
sure it is locked.

Using Folded Seatback as a Table 
While the Vehicle is Moving:
Using the folded seatback as a table 
while driving is dangerous. During 
sudden braking or a collision, objects 
placed on the folded seatback could 
become projectiles that could hit and 
injure someone. Never use the folded 
seat as a table while the vehicle is 
moving.

Lowering the seatback without 
stowing the seat belt buckle could 
damage the seatback.
