Tilting the Full Bench Seat
CAUTION:
If the seatback isn’t locked, it could move forward
in a sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury
to the person sitting there. Always press rearward
on the seatback to be sure it is locked.
CAUTION:
If the support rod isn’t properly engaged, the
folded third row seat could come loose in a
sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury to
people and damage to your vehicle. Always be
sure the support rod is properly engaged when
the third row seat is folded forward.
Once the third seatback has been folded down, the entire
seat can be tilted forward to create a flat load floor. To
do this, do the following:
1. Enter the rear cargo area of the vehicle.
2. Make sure the head restraints have been
lowered completely.
3. With the seat folded,
unlatch the seat from the
floor by pulling up on
the lever located under
the carrying handle at
the rear of the seat
labeled 2.
4. Lift the rear of the seat up, off the floor. You will not
be able to unlatch the seat from the floor unless the
seatback is folded down.
