FORD 2012 Flex v.2 - Manual (Page 167)

Note: In the unlikely event that the third row power seat stops
prematurely, or travels to an unexpected position, press the FOLD
button (3) to reset the seat and return it to a normal position.
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.
Folding the head restraints manually
The head restraints can also be folded manually without folding/stowing
the seat.
• Fold: Pull the head restraint
release strap to fold the head
restraints forward.
• Unfold: Pull the head restraints
back to the upright position.
WARNING: To minimize the risk of neck injury in the event of a
crash, passenger occupants should not sit in the vehicle until the
head restraint is placed in its proper position.
Closing the liftgate
WARNING: To avoid injury to third row occupants when closing
the liftgate, ensure that the head of any occupant is not in the
path of the closing liftgate.
