Third Row Seats (Accessing the Seat)
WARNINGS
Before returning the seatback to its
original position, make sure that cargo
or any objects are not trapped behind the
seatback. After returning the seatback to its
original position, pull on the seatback to
make sure that it has fully latched. An
unlatched seat may become dangerous in
the event of a sudden stop or crash. Do not adjust or release the seat floor
latch while vehicle is in motion. Do not
operate the vehicle with seats in the tumbled
position. Always latch the vehicle seat to the
floor, whether the seat is occupied or empty.
If not latched or if the seat is tumbled, the
seat may cause injury during a sudden stop. Note:
Remove items from the second-row
seat. Make sure that no bulky objects such
as purses or briefcases are on the floor in
front of the second-row seats before
tumbling them.
Note: For second-row bench seats, make
sure the center seatbelt is unbuckled before
folding the seatback.
Note: You may have to move the front-row
seat forward to allow the second-row seat
to be fully tumbled.
Fold and tumble the second-row seat to
access the third row. 142

Make sure that there are no objects
such as books, purses or brief cases on the
load floor before unstowing the seat. Failure
to remove all objects from the top of the load
floor prior to unstowing it may cause
damage to the seat.
Note: Make sure the area under the forward
portion of the load floor is free of objects
before unstowing the third row seat. 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
position, push the seat over, letting it 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 the
seatback.
3. Pull the head restraints up to their normal
positions. 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 76). Keep the key in the accessory or
run position to prevent the feature from
timing out.

behind the third row seats on the left-hand
quarter trim panel.
