Stowable Seat
If your vehicle has a third row seat, it is a power
folding seat.
The head rests must be removed before folding the
third row seat, see Head Restraints on page 1-9.
The buttons to operate the power folding third row seat
are inside the liftgate and behind the second row seat on
the passenger’s side of the vehicle.
e: Press to tilt the seatback forward or rearward.
f: Press to fold the seat.
Notice: Folding a rear seat with the safety belts
still fastened may cause damage to the seat or
the safety belts. Always unbuckle the safety belts
and return them to their normal stowed position
before folding a rear seat.
Before folding or unfolding the third row seat, all of the
following conditions must be met:
• The liftgate or passenger’s side rear door must
be open.
• The unlock button on either the remote keyless entry
transmitter or the door must be pressed three times
to enable the rear seat for two minutes, or the ignition
must be in ON/RUN or ACC/ACCESSORY.
• The vehicle must be in PARK (P).
• The vehicle cannot have a low battery.
After the seat is folded, fold the panel on the seat
forward flat on the floor.
If the seat’s path is blocked it will stop and back away.
Press the button again to return the seat to its previous
position.
Before returning the third row seat to the passenger
seating position, the panel must be folded back upon
itself. Press and hold one of the power folding seat
buttons and the seat will unfold into the seating position.
If the seat is not unfolded fully into the seating position,
a chime will sound when the vehicle is shifted out of
PARK (P). This indicates that the seat is not ready
for a passenger.
Replace the head rests.
