There is a way but it can be tricky, you need to get a flat head screw driver and get it in the hole at the back and push the mech down to release the seat, theres a guide hanging around somewhere, ill see if can dig it out.

no prob i had the same prob when i fitted my Recoros, i pulled the handle out then in a kiddy fit slamed the seat down back so it locked in place so had to replace the handle and release the rear seat lol

I only found out mine was faulty while trying to load a large item in the boot 150 miles from home.
Oops.
