SIX AND SEVEN PASSENGER SEAT
VERSATILITY
To fold both second- and third-row seats in half, drop the
second-row seats into the floorboards and create a wide-open
flat-loading floor in your cargo area.
Here's how to do it:
To Fold the Second Row Seats
1. Make sure the head restraints are in their lowest position.
2. Pull the strap.
3. Fold the seatback forward. When folding the larger,
60% seat, make sure you push down in the center of
the seat to make sure that the seat latches lock.
4. Pull the large strap on the rear of the seatback.
5. Move the seat forward to the lowered position.
As before in Step 3, when folding the larger, 60%
seat, make sure you push down in the center of the
seat to make sure that the seat latches lock.
NOTE When the seat locks into its lowered position, it sounds
a distinct click. If you can see the red on the pull strap, then the
seat is not latched. Push down on the seat until the red flag
disappears. When you cannot see the red flag, then you
know that the seat is in its latched and locked position.

NOTE When raising the seats back up into a seating position, make
sure the seat latches are locked by pressing down on the center of the
seat. If the seats are not in their downward-most, locked position,
you will not be able to raise the seatbacks.
You can fold the third-row seats down to create a
flat-loading cargo floor. For bench seats:
1. Make sure the seats are in the fully rearward
position, and fully lower the head restraints.
2. Pull the strap on the rear of the seat cushion.
3. Fold the seat cushion forward.
4. Pull the strap on the rear of the seatback.
5. Fold the seatback forward.

For third-row bucket seats:
1. Make sure the seats are in the fully rearward
position, and fully lower the head restraints.
2. Pull the handle on the side of the
seatback. Note: You can also use this
handle to recline the seatback.
3. Fold the seatback forward.
4. Pull the strap on the rear of the seatback.
5. Move the seat forward to
the lowered position.
Create a flat-loading cargo floor by folding the
carpeted cover forward over both rows.
