Tumbling of 2nd Seats by aksimons

I was worried about these seats because I am about to need the space for a load of windows and I couldn't get the seats to move. They do not work per the instructions.
 
Using the suggestion above to single fold the back of the seat and using that momentum to double fold (tumble) worked perfectly. Now I know.
 
Thanks very much for the posts.

My dealer didn't even know how to make the secodn row of seats come out. He wanted the car for a day to take the seats apart and then he said he would need to order parts. Sometime during the day, he figured it out or somebody told him. It's really not clear in the manual. He told me the same answer you have gotten here, about the momentum. Glad somebody knows the answer.

I actually use the plastic handle to tumble the seats each time. MIne got stuck after replacing the seats back into the van caused a piece of the plastic around the locking mechanism to get stuck inside the lock. I had to use a screwdriver to "assist" ther seat in letting go so the plastic could be removed.

no problem for me by okfuzzwicket

I've had my Entourage for about 3.5 months and the only problem I have is the seat wanting to unlatch when I just want to put the back down - fold it.
In looking closely at the process this AM I notice that when the back folds to just below vertical there is also a link that unlatches the rear of the seat so it starts to tumble as the seat back is being lowered. In other words the process of folding the seat back unlatches the rear attachment. So what I have to do if I just want to fold the seat back down is to relatch the seat to the floor after the seat is folded.
Hope this helps.
P.S. In previewing this post, I see a photo attached and I have no idea where that came from. It is not related to me.
