2-Way Front Seat
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.
’ . ’ . ’? .. The bucket seats can be
adjusted forward or
rearward
by the lever at
the front
of the seat.
Move the seat adjustment lever at the front
of the seat
toward
the driver’s door to unlock it. Slide the seat to
where you want it. Then release the lever and try to
move the seat with your body, to make sure the seat
is
locked into place.

A safety belt that is twisted or not properly
attached won’t provide the protection needed in a
crash. The person wearing the belt could be seriously injured. After installing the seat, always check to be sure that the safety belts are not
twisted and are properly attached.

Bucket Seats
If you have rear bucket
seats with
an adjustment
lever at the front
of the
seats, they will recline and
adjust the same way as the See
“Manual Front Seats” and“Rec1ining Seatbacks”
earlier in this section
or in the Index.
You may have rear bucket seats with
an adjustment
release bar at the front of the seats. These seats can be
adjusted forward or rearward with the release bar. Pull
the release
bar up to release the seat bottom and slide the
seat where you want it. Then let
go of the release bar
and try to move the seat with your body, to make sure
the seat is locked into place.

If you have bench seats in your vehicle, each seat can
carry up to three passengers. They can also be removed
to increase storage space.
The center bench (if not equipped with a built-in child
restraint) and rear bench seats can be adjusted forward
or rearward by the lever at the front of the seat.
Move the seat adjustment
lever at the front
of the seat
toward the passenger’s side
to unlock it. Slide the seat
to where you want it. Then
release the lever and try to
move the seat with
your
body, to make sure the seat
is locked into place. The
optional touring bench seats come with moveable
armrests, individual reclining seatbacks, adjustable
headrests and
a fold-down center armrest console.
The non-touring center bench seat has a pivoting
right armrest. The left armrest can also be used as a
storage compartment. To
adjust your seatback, pull up on the lever on the
lower outside of the seat.
The center bench seatbacks will recline further back
than the rear bench seatbacks.
