To use the cargo table:
To store items under the table in
the cargo area, unhook and lift
the panels in the table.
To use as a picnic table, remove
the table from the cargo area,
unfold it and extend the legs.
To reduce the risk of
injuries, all four feet must
be properly seated in the notches
on the rear trim panels and the
hinge must be locked.
Do not place any objects on
the cargo table. They may
obstruct your vision or strike
occupants of the vehicle in the
case of a sudden stop or collision.
