Seats and Seat Controls
This section tells you about the power seats -- how to
adjust them, and also about reclining front seatbacks,
lumbar adjustments, heated seats and head restraints.
Power Seats
The power seat controls are
located on the outboard side
of the front seat cushions.
Move the front of the seat control up or down to
adjust the front portion of the cushion.
Move the rear of the seat control to adjust the rear
portion of the cushion.
Lift up or push down on the seat control to move the
entire seat up or down.
To move the seat forward or rearward, slide the seat
control forward or rearward.
Power Lumbar Control (If Equipped)
If you have this feature, the
driver's and passenger's
seatback lumbar support
can be adjusted four ways
by moving the single
switch located on the
side of the seat.
To increase or decrease support, hold the switch forward
or rearward. To move the lumbar up or down, hold the
switch upward or downward.
Keep in mind that as your seating position changes, as it
may during long trips, so should the position of your
lumbar support. Adjust the seat as needed.

1-3 Massaging Lumbar (If Equipped)
Push the lumbar control, located on the outboard side of each
front seat, up for half a second to activate the massage
feature. The massage cycle will run for 10 minutes and can be
interrupted by pushing the lumbar control down briefly. The
lumbar support can be adjusted during the massage cycle by
moving the switch forward to increase support and rearward
to decrease support. The massage cycle will continue to run
even if the ignition is turned to OFF, unless interrupted.
Adaptive Seat Control (If Equipped)
The adaptive seat control is
located on the outboard side
of each front seat. Use the
power seat control first to
get the proper position.
With the ignition on, press the control up to activate the
adaptive seat. (The lumbar will automatically adjust to
your body's positioning for the duration of the trip in
four
-minute cycles.)To reshape the lower seatback, press the lumbar
control forward to increase support and rearward to
decrease support.
To turn off the adaptive seat feature, press the control
down. The seat will deflate when the adaptive seat
control or the ignition is turned off.
Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering
Wheel (Option)
The controls for these
features are located on the
driver's door panel, and are
used to program and recall
previous settings.
Adjust the driver's seat (including the lumbar and head
restraint adjustments), both the outside mirrors and
steering wheel to a comfortable position and then press
the MEMORY SET button. Within five seconds, press
button 1.

CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
Curb View Assist Mirror (If Equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with memory mirrors, it will
also be equipped with the curb view assist mirror
feature. This feature will cause the passenger's mirror to
tilt when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature is
especially useful in allowing you to view the curb when
you are parallel parking. If further adjustment is needed
after the mirror is tilted, the power mirror controls may
be used to adjust the mirror. If the mirror control is
pressed while the passenger's mirror is tilted, the mirror
will move in that direction, but will return to its original
position once the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R)
and a five
-second delay has occurred.
To program the feature, see ªCurb View Assist Mirror
Programmingº in the Index.
Storage Compartments
Glove Box
The glove box is located in front of the passenger's seat.
To lock the glove box door, insert the master key into
the lock cylinder and turn it clockwise. Turn the key
counterclockwise to unlock the door.
Map Pocket
The map/storage pockets are located on each front door as
well as on the passenger's and driver's front seatbacks.

Headlamp Aiming
Your vehicle has a headlamp system equipped with
horizontal and vertical aim indicators. The aim has been
pre
-set at the factory and should need no further
adjustment. This is true even though your vertical and
horizontal aim indicators may not fall exactly on the
ª0º (zero) marks on their scales.
If your vehicle is damaged in an accident, the headlamp
aim may be affected. Aim adjustment may be necessary
if it is difficult to see lane markers (for horizontal aim),
or if oncoming drivers flash their high beams at you (for
vertical aim). If you believe your headlamps need to be
re
-aimed, we recommend that you take it to your dealer
for service; however, it is possible for you to re
-aim
your headlamps as described in the following procedure.
NOTICE:
To make sure your headlamps are aimed
properly, read all the instructions before
beginning. Failure to follow these instructions
could cause damage to headlamp parts.
The vehicle should be properly prepared as follows:
The vehicle must have all four tires on a perfectly
level surface.
If necessary, pads may be used on an uneven surface.
The vehicle should not have any snow, ice or mud
attached to it.
The vehicle should be fully assembled and all other
work stopped while headlamp aiming is being done.
There should not be any cargo or loading of the
vehicle, except it should have a full tank of fuel and
one person or 160 lbs. (75 kg) on the driver's seat.
Close all doors.
Tires should be properly inflated.
Rock the vehicle to stabilize the suspension.
