Know what kind of control to look for.
This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
Park, open the liftgate, remove objects from on or under the seats and clear the second-row tracks.
- 02
Unbuckle and stow rear seat belts so no belt or occupant is in a folding seat's path.
- 03
Press the left or right cargo-side switch to fold the matching second-row seatback.
- 04
Press and hold the matching third-row switch on the passenger side of the cargo area until that seatback reaches the desired folded or upright position.
- 05
After raising any seat, push and pull on the seatback and verify the belts are correctly routed and not trapped.
Important limits
- Never power-fold a seat with a person, child restraint, loose object or fastened belt in its path.
- The third-row switch must be held; releasing it stops powered movement.
Quick checks.
- ✓If a second-row seat will not fold flat, move the front seat forward if needed and clear the seat track.
- ✓If an upright seat does not latch, move it through the full return motion and push and pull on the seatback before allowing an occupant to use it.
