FRONT SEATS

Manual Front Seat Adjustment

Forward/Rearward
• Lift up on the adjusting bar, located at the front of the seat near the floor, and release
at the desired position. Then, using body pressure, move forward and backward on the
seat to be sure that the seat adjusters have latched.
Recliner
• To recline the seatback, lift up the recline
lever, located on the outboard side of
the seat, lean back until the desired posi-
tion has been reached, and release the
lever.
Seat Height
• The seat height can be raised or lowered
by using a lever, located on the outboard
side of the seat. Pump the lever upward
to raise the seat height, or pump the
lever downward to lower the seat
height.
• 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.
• Actuating the recliner handle will allow the seatback to swing forward. Do not
stand or lean in front of the seatback while actuating the handle. The seatback
may swing forward and strike you, causing injury. To avoid possible injury, place
your hand on the seatback while actuating the recliner handle.
• 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.
