Step 1
Grasp the front of the futon under the seat.
Step 2
Lift the seat of the futon toward the back. Keep pushing the front of the seat up and toward the back of the futon until you hear a click and feel the two sections become free of one another.
Step 3
Ease the front seat of the futon back down until it is resting on the frame again. The back of the futon will lower along with the seat to create a flat sleeping surface.
