Power Fold Down Backrest (if equipped)
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Lincoln MKX and 2014 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The optional power fold down backrest, in addition to functioning with the manual recline handle, has a convenient power fold seat control switch mounted in the LH rear quarter trim panel rear hatch area. When the switch is pushed, left or right, an electromechanical motor releases that seat's recliners through a cable attachment, and a spring load folds the backrest down and kneels the front legs. The seat backrest must then be manually lifted upright to the seating position with the recliners locked in place.
