1.
Unlatch and lift the seat out of the floor
tub by squeezing and pulling up on the
handle. Once the seat is at a vertical

fall onto the latches. 2. To return the seatback to the upright
position, pull the red strap. Then, while
holding the red strap, pull the long
strap located on the seatback to raise

PowerFold™Third Row Seats (If
equipped)
The third row seat features a power
one-touch operation that allows you to
adjust the left, right, or both seats into a
NORMAL, STOW, FOLD, or TAILGATE
position with just one touch of a button.
Note: The power fold seats work only when
the transmission is in park (P) and the
tailgate is open. If the ignition is off and the
feature is still running, the battery saver will
turn it off after 10 minutes. You can
reactivate the power seats by pressing the
unlock button on the remote entry key fob
or by using the unlock procedure on the
keyless entry keypad. See Keyless Entry
(page 67). Keep the key in the accessory or
run position to prevent the feature from
timing out.
The third row power seat buttons are
located behind the third row seats on the
left-hand quarter trim panel.
