Exiting The Third Row Seat - Ford 2005 Freestyle Owner's Manual

Seating and Safety Restraints
To return the seatback to the
upright position
• Lift the seatback toward the rear
of the vehicle, and
• Rotate the seatback until you
hear a click, locking it in the
upright position.
Note: The seatback will not raise if
the rear latch hooks are not
properly engaged to the floor
striker.
Before returning the seatback to its original position, make sure
that cargo or any objects are not trapped underneath 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.

Exiting the third row seat

Pull on the strap located on the
back of the second row seat. This
will fold the seatback forward. Pull
the strap a second time to tumble
the seat forward, allowing easy exit
from the 3rd row seat.
