Tilting the Bench Seat
The seat can be tilted forward to provide additional
cargo space.
To tilt the seat, do the following:
1. Open the liftgate to access the controls for the seat
and enter the rear of the vehicle.
2. Make sure the head restraints are completely
lowered.
3. Fold the seatback forward using the instructions
listed under “Folding the Seatback” previously.
You will not be able to unlatch the seat from the
floor unless the seatback is folded down.
4. Unlatch the seat from
the floor by pulling up
on the lever labeled 2,
located on the rear
of the seat.
5. Lift the rear of the seat up from the floor and push it
forward.
{CAUTION:
If the support rod is not 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.
6. While holding the seat
forward, pull the
support rod out from
the retainer clips
and flip it down until it
latches into place.
The seat will now remain in the upright position. Place
the seat in this position only when necessary for
additional cargo space.
