Seating and Safety Restraints The control buttons are located on the driver-side rear quarter trim panel (accessible from the liftgate area). Push the bottom portion of the control button to lower the desired seatback. Push the top of the control button to return the seatback to its original position. The power fold down seats will operate for 30 minutes after the ignition switch is in the 1 (OFF/Lock) position. The transmission must be in P (Park), and the liftgate or liftgate glass must be open. Similar to the Battery Saver feature, the power 3rd row seat will be disabled 30 minutes after turning the vehicle off. If the power 3rd row seat is disabled after 30 minutes, the seat can be enabled by opening any door, pressing the unlock control on the remote entry transmitter, pressing any keyless keypad button (if equipped), or turning the ignition key. 180
