Power Seats — If Equipped
Some models may be equipped with a power
driver's seat. The power seat switch is located
on the outboard side of the seat near the floor.
Use the switch to move the seat up, down,
forward, rearward, or to tilt the seat.

WARNING!
• Adjusting a seat while driving may be dan-
gerous. Moving a seat while driving could
result in loss of control which could cause a
collision and serious injury or death.
• Seats should be adjusted before fastening
the seat belts and while the vehicle is
parked. Serious injury or death could result
from a poorly adjusted seat belt.
CAUTION!
Do not place any article under a power seat
or impede its ability to move as it may cause
damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may
become limited if movement is stopped by an
obstruction in the seat's path.
Adjusting The Seat Forward Or Rearward
The seat can be adjusted both forward and
rearward. Push the seat switch forward or rear-
ward. The seat will move in the direction of the
switch. Release the switch when the desired
position has been reached.
Adjusting The Seat Up Or Down
The height of the seats can be adjusted up or
down. Pull upward or push downward on the
seat switch. The seat will move in the direction
of the switch. Release the switch when the
desired position is reached.
Tilting The Seat Up Or Down
The angle of the seat cushion can be adjusted in
four directions. Pull upward or push downward
on the front or rear of the seat switch, the front or
rear of the seat cushion will move in the direc-
tion of the switch. Release the switch when the
desired position is reached.
Heated Seats — If Equipped
On some models, the front driver and passenger
seats may be equipped with heaters in both the
seat cushions and seatbacks. The controls for
the front heated seats are located on the center
instrument panel area.
You can choose from HI, LO or OFF heat
settings. Amber indicator lights in each switch
indicate the level of heat in use. Two indicator
lights will illuminate for HI, one for LO and none
for OFF.
Push the switch once to select HI-
level heating. Push the switch a sec-
ond time to select LO-level heating.
Push the switch a third time to shut
the heating elements OFF.
When the HI-level setting is selected, the heater
will provide a boosted heat level during the initial
stages of operation. Then, the heat output will
drop to the normal HI-level. If the HI-level setting
is selected, the system will automatically switch
to LO-level after approximately 30 minutes of
continuous operation. At that time, the display
will change from HI to LO, indicating the change.
When the LO-level heating is selected, the
system automatically turns the heater and the
indicator light OFF after approximately 30 min-
utes of continuous operation.
NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be
felt within two to five minutes.
