Seats 153 Press the control located at the back of the rear door opening one time to fold the seat back down and tumble the seat forward for access to the 3rd row. Note: When the ignition is in turned off, the power fold feature will work until the battery saver will turns it off after 10 minutes. You can reactivate the power seats by pressing the unlock button on the remote entry key fob or by using the unlock procedure on the keyless entry keypad. Refer to the Locks and Security chapter. Keeping the key in accessory or run positions will prevent the feature from timing out. Third Row Seats Accessing the seat WARNING: Before returning the seatback to its original position, make sure that cargo or any objects are not trapped behind the seatback. After returning the seatback to its original position, pull on the seatback to ensure that it has fully latched. An unlatched seat may become dangerous in the event of a sudden stop or collision. WARNING: Do not adjust or release the seat floor latch while vehicle is in motion. Do not operate the vehicle with seats in tumbled position. Always latch the vehicle seat to the floor, whether the seat is occupied or empty. If not latched or if the seat is tumbled, the seat may cause injury during a sudden stop. Note: You may have to move the front row seat forward to allow the second row seat to be fully tumbled. Fold and tumble the second row seat to access the third row. Remove items from the second row seat and ensure that no bulky objects such as purses or briefcases are on the floor in front of the second row seats before tumbling them. For second row bench seats, make sure the center safety belt is unbuckled before folding the seatback. 2013 MKT (mkt) Owners Guide gf, 2nd Printing USA (fus)
