{CAUTION:
Sitting in a reclined position when your
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.
Even if you buckle up, your safety belts
cannot do their job when you are reclined
like this.
The shoulder belt cannot do its job. In a
crash, you could go into it, receiving neck
or other injuries.
The lap belt cannot do its job either. In a
crash the belt could go up over your
abdomen. The belt forces would be there,
not at your pelvic bones. This could cause
serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle is
in motion, have the seatback upright.
Then sit well back in the seat and wear
your safety belt properly.
Do not have a seatback reclined if your vehicle is
moving.
17

Center Seat
Your vehicle may have a front center seat. The
seatback doubles as an armrest and cupholder/
storage area for the driver and passenger when the
center seat is not used. Do not use it as a seating
position when the seatback is folded down.
For information on safety belts for this position,
seeCenter Front Passenger Position on page 53.
Rear Seats
Heated Seats
If the rear seats have
the heated seat feature,
the buttons used to
control this feature are
located on the Rear
Seat Audio (RSA) panel.

press the button with the heated seat symbol.
A heated seat symbol will be shown in the RSA

Indicator bars next to the symbol will designate
the level of heat selected: three for high,
two for medium, and one for low.
The heated seats will be canceled ten seconds after
the ignition is turned off. If the vehicle is restarted,
the heated seat button will need to be pressed
again to restart the feature.
