Reclining the Front Seats
SLIDE BAR
You can recline the seat-backs on the
front seats so they are level with the
rear seat cushions, making a large
cushioned area. To do this:
EX-L model only
Only the passenger's side can be
level as follows.
SEAT-BACK ANGLE
ADJUSTMENT LEVER
1. Adjust the rear seats as far back
as possible.
2. Remove the front head restraints
(see page 98 ), and store them
securely.
3. Adjust the front seats forward as
far as possible. Pull up the seat-
back angle adjustment lever and
pivot the seat-back backward until
it is level with the rear seat
cushion.
EX-L model only
The seat-back of the power
adjustable driver's seat cannot be
level. Do not push the seat-back
down forcibly.
4. Adjust the rear seat-back to the
desired position.
Reverse this procedure to return the
front and rear seats to the upright
position. Make sure you install the
head restraints and securely lock the
seats before driving.
When you return the seat-back to its
upright position, hold the seat-back
to keep it from going up too quickly.
