Reclining the seats
Pull the lever located on the outside
of the seat to recline the seatback.
Release the lever to lock the
seatback in place.
Reclining the seatback can cause an occupant to slide under the
seat's safety belt, resulting in severe personal injuries in the
event of a collision.
Never adjust the driver's seat or seatback when the vehicle is
moving.
Using the manual lumbar support (if equipped)
For more lumbar support, turn the
lumbar support control toward the
front of vehicle.
For less lumbar support, turn the
lumbar support control toward the
rear of vehicle.
