Adjustment of Driver's Seat and
Front Passenger Seat
Forward and backward adjustement:
lift handle (1); slide seat to desired po­
sition and allow handle to reengage.
Height of seat: raise lever (2); to raise
seat, move seat forward; to lower
seat, move seat backward; allow
lever to reengage.
Seat back position: turn handwheel
(3) forward or backward. For full re­
clining of backrest, seat should be
moved to one of the forwardmost
positions and headrest removed. For
driving, return backrest to upright
position and push seat back.
Replace headrest.
Note:
Prior to operating the vehicle,
the driver should adjust the seat
height for proper vision as well as
fore-aft placement and seat back
angle to insure adequate control,
reach, operation, and comfort.
The headrest should also be
adjusted for proper height so that
when the cushion is tipped com ­
pletely forward, it should form a
cradle behind the seat occupant's
head. Both the inside and outside
rear view m irrors should then be
adjusted for adequate rearward
vision. Fasten seat belts. Children
under the age of six or under the
weight of 23 kg/50 lb should be
seated in the back seat with an
approved restraint system properly
secured. All seat, headrest, and
rear view m irror adjustments as
well as fastening of seat belts
should be accomplished before the
vehicle is put into motion.
