Reclining Seatbacks
Manual Reclining Seatbacks
WARNING
You can lose control of the
vehicle if you try to adjust a
manual driver's seat while the
vehicle is moving. The sudden
movement could startle and
confuse you, or make you push a
pedal when you do not want to.
Adjust the driver's seat only when
the vehicle is not moving.
WARNING
If either seatback is not locked, it
could move forward in a sudden
stop or crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting there.
Always push and pull on the
seatbacks to be sure they are
locked.
In vehicles with seats that have
manual reclining seatbacks, the
lever used to operate them is
located on the outboard side of the
seat. See Seat Adjustment on
page 3 3.

1. Lift the recline lever (C).

3. Push and pull on the seatback to

make sure it is locked.
