FORD 2005 Excursion v.2 - Manual (Page 107)

Removing the third row seat
From the rear of the vehicle, with the liftgate window and cargo doors
open:
1. Pull the seat release lever located
on the lower right side of the
seatback while pushing the seatback
down onto the seat cushion.
• The seatback will latch onto the
cushion.
2. Lift the seat release bar located
at the center of the seat near the
floor to release the floor latches.
3. While pulling up on the release
bar, lift the seat up and out of the floor tubs and roll seat rearward.
4. With assistance, lift the seat out of the vehicle.
Installing the third row seat
Always latch the vehicle seat to the floor, whether the seat is
occupied or empty. If not latched, the seat may cause injury
during a sudden stop.
When reinstalling a rear seat in your vehicle it must be placed in
its original position. Improper installation of the seat will prevent
correct use of the safety belts and could increase the risk of injury.
Refer to the warning label on the seat belt.
For proper latching, ensure that the
floor tubs are clear of debris.
From the rear of the vehicle, with
the liftgate open:
1. With assistance, lift the seat into
the rear of the vehicle. Roll the seat
forward and guide the front locators
over the seat locator pins of the front floor tubs.
• When the rear of the seat is 4–5 in (10–13 cm) above the rear pins,
let the seat drop. This will ensure that the seat will properly latch into
the floor.
2. Push up on the seat to verify that it is latched into the floor.
