Accessing the 3rd row seat

If your vehicle has an adjustable 2nd row bench seat or 2nd row bucket
console seat, it can be adjusted to allow easier access to the 3rd row seat
by sliding the seat forward, folding the seatback to the forward flat
position, or using the recline control to adjust seatback forward.
If your vehicle has 2nd row bucket seats, it has an easy entry seat
feature which allows ready access to the 3rd row seat.
To access the 3rd row seat with 2nd
row buckets:
1. Pull the seatback recline control
up and allow seatback to flip
forward.
2. Push seatback toward front of
vehicle. This releases the seat track
automatically and the seat will move
forward.
3. After entering the 3rd row seat,
pull back the seatback until it latches. This will latch and lock the
seatback and the seat track. The seatback and seat will not return to
their original position.
Do not attempt to use this feature when the seatback is folded in the
forward flat position. The seatback must be in an upright position, as
shown, for the system to work properly.
Check to see that the seat and seatback is latched securely in
position. Keep floor area free of objects that would prevent
proper seat engagement. Never attempt to adjust the seat while the
vehicle is in motion.
