FORD 2013 Explorer v.1 - Manual (Page 187)

WARNING: Ensure seat is latched to vehicle floor by
pushing/pulling on seat. If not latched, the seat may cause injury
during a sudden stop.
WARNING: Before returning the seatback to its original position,
make sure that cargo or any objects are not trapped behind 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.
WARNING: Do not drive the vehicle when the third row seat is
rotated backwards. During a sudden stop, the safety belts are not
functional in this position and the third row seat can rapidly tip back to
the forward position, all of which may result in serious injury.
Note: Do not use seat in this position or damage to seat may occur.
PowerFold ா 3rd-row seats (if equipped)
These seats feature a power one-touch operation that allows you fold and
stow the seats.
• The power fold seats work only when the vehicle is in P (Park) and
the tailgate is open.
• If the ignition is off and the feature is still running, the battery saver
will turn it off after 10 minutes. You can reactivate the power seats by
pressing unlock on the remote entry key transmitter or by unlocking
with the keyless entry keypad. Refer to the Locks and Security
