GETTING STARTED
Recliner
Fold-Flat Front Passenger Seat
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 a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden
movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not
be properly adjusted, and you could be severely injured or killed. Only adjust a
seat while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting
against your chest. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt and be
severely injured or killed. Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.

• Lift the recliner handle located on the
outboard side of the seat, lean back
and release at the desired position.
Driver's Seat Height Adjustment
• The height adjustment lever is located
on the outboard side of the seat. Raise
the lever to raise the seat. Lower the
lever to lower the seat.
Lumbar Support
• The lumbar lever is on the outboard
side of the seatback. Rotate the lumbar
lever downward to increase the lumbar
support or upward to decrease the
lumbar support as desired.
• The front passenger seat can be folded
flat. Pull up on the recliner handle, to
the full upward position, to fold down
the seatback.
CAUTION!
