Seats and Seat Controls
This section tells you about the seats -- how to adjust
them, and also about reclining front seatbacks, lumbar
adjustments, heated seats and head restraints.
Manual Front Seat
CAUTION:
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
don't want to. Adjust the driver's seat only when
the vehicle is not moving.
Lift the bar located under the front seat to unlock it.
Slide the seat to where you want it and release the bar.
Try to move the seat with your body to be sure the seat
is locked into place.
To tilt the front portion of the seat cushion up or down,
lift the seat lever located on the outboard side of the seat
cushion. Release the lever to lock the seat into place.

1-3
To raise or lower the seat cushion, press one of the
rocker switch buttons located on the side of the seat
cushion closest to the door. The top button raises
the seat cushion and the bottom button lowers the
seat cushion.
Vehicles with sport seats also include an adjustable seat
cushion which extends outward to provide additional
leg support.
To extend the bottom of the seat cushion, grasp the front
portion of the cushion and pull it towards the front of
the vehicle.When additional support is no longer needed, return the
cushion to its original position by pushing it towards the
rear of the vehicle.
Manual Lumbar Support
The manual lumbar control
is located on the outboard
side of each front seatback.
The control provides
additional support to your
lower back and works
independently of other
seat controls.
Use the seat controls first to get the proper seating
position. Then proceed with the lumbar adjustment.
The upper and lower seatback can be adjusted using the
small hand
-wheel control. Turn the control forward to
increase support and rearward to decrease support.
Keep in mind that as your seating position changes,
as it may during long trips, so should the position
of the lumbar support. Adjust the seat as needed.
