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. {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. 5. Lift the rear of the seat up from the floor and push it forward. The seat will now remain in the upright position. Place the seat in this position only when necessary for additional cargo space. 1-19
