Cadillac 2006 Escalade Owner's Manual page 27

CAUTION:
{
If the support rod is not properly engaged, the
folded third row seat could come loose in a
sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury
to people and damage to your vehicle. Always
be sure the support rod is properly engaged
when the third row seat is folded forward.
The seat will now remain in the upright position. Place
the seat in this position only when necessary for
additional cargo space.
6. While holding the seat
forward, pull the
support rod out from
the retainer clips
and flip it down until it
latches into place.
Returning the Bench Seat from a Tilted
Position
To return the seat to the normal seating position, do the
following:
1. Open the liftgate to access the controls for the
bench seat and enter the rear of the vehicle.
3. Place the support rod back into the storage position.
4. Pull the seat toward you and push firmly down
until the seat latches in the floor.
5. Lift up on the seat to make sure it is locked into
place.
2. Pull the lever on the
support rod bracket
until it unlatches from
the seat bracket.
