NOTE: Driving with second row seats folded forward
may increase perceivable noise and/or vibration coming from the rear of the vehicle (trunk, suspension, etc.).
To allow you to carry long items (such as skis) in the rear of
Model Y, the center seat back can also be
independently folded forward. Pull the handle on the
rear of the seat back to unlatch it, then pull it forward.
You can also fold the second row seat backs fully
forward by pressing the corresponding switch located on the left side of the rear trunk. Pressing the switch causes the seat back to swing forward. You can then push it downward so it lays fully
flat.
To return the seat backs to their upright position, pull it
upwards until it locks into place. To
confirm that the seat
back is locked in the upright position, try pulling it forward.
NOTE: Before raising a second row seat back, make sure
that the seat belts are not trapped behind the backrest.
WARNING: Always ensure the seat backs are
locked in their upright position by pushing it
forward or rearward. Failure to do so increases the
risk of injury.
Moving Second Row Seats (7-seater
only)
Lift the bar located beneath each outboard seating position to unlock and move the second row seats
forward or rearward. The bench seats have a 60/40 split. Therefore, the bar on the left side moves the seat for the left and center seats, whereas the bar on the
right side moves only the rightmost seat. Pull up and
hold the bar while moving the seat forward or rearward. Release the lever when the seat is at the desired location. Push the seat rearward and forward to ensure the seat(s) are locked into position.

pull the seat back upward until it latches into place. Try pulling the backrest forward to
confirm that it is securely

from the seats and the footwell. To allow the backrests
to fold completely
flat, you may need to move the
second row seats forward.
NOTE: Driving with the third row backrests folded
forward may result in increased perceivable noise and/or vibration coming from the rear of the vehicle (trunk,
suspension, etc.).
WARNING: Always ensure the seat backrests are
locked in their upright position before travel.
Failure to do so increases the risk of injury.
