Seats and Seat Controls
This section tells you about the seats -- how to adjust
them, and fold them up and down.
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.
Move the lever located under the front of the manual
seat up 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.

1-3 Manual Lumbar Support (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this
feature, there will be a knob
on the outboard side of the
driver's and passenger's
bucket seats.
Turn the knob counterclockwise to increase lumbar
support and clockwise to decrease lumbar support.
Power Seats (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this feature, there will be a control on
the outboard side of your seat.
Horizontal Control: Raise or lower the front of the
seat by raising or lowering the forward edge of
the control.
Raise or lower the rear of the seat by raising or lowering
the rear edge of the control. Move the seat forward or
rearward by moving the whole control toward the
front or the rear of the vehicle.

1-4
Moving the whole control up or down raises or lowers
the whole seat.
Vertical Control: Move the reclining front seatback
forward or rearward by moving the control toward the
front or rear of the vehicle.
Power Lumbar Control (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this
feature, it is located on the
outboard side of the seat(s).
Press and hold the front of the control until you have
the desired lumbar support. To decrease lumbar support,
press and hold the rear of the control.
Memory Seat (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this
feature, the control located
on the outboard side of the
driver's seat looks like this.
Use this memory function to save your seat cushion and
seatback settings by using the following procedure:
1. Adjust the driver's seat to a safe and comfortable
driving position.
2. Press the SET button and then one of the two
numbered memory buttons. You will hear a chime
for each button pushed to confirm that your settings
have been placed in memory.
3. To program your keyless entry transmitter, if equipped,
press the UNLOCK button within five seconds of
programming the memory button. You will hear a
chime to confirm programming of the transmitter.

1-5
When your vehicle is in PARK (P) for an automatic
transmission or the parking brake is engaged for a
manual transmission, push and release the numbered
memory button you just stored. The seat will move to
the set position. You will hear one chime.
Pressing the UNLOCK button of a keyless entry
transmitter will adjust the seat to the corresponding
stored memory position. You will hear one chime.
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 to readjust the seat. The transmitter
need not be reprogrammed unless it needs to correspond
to the other numbered memory button.
To set the seat for a second driver, follow the previous
steps, but use the other numbered button and the other
keyless entry transmitter.
If there is a third driver, use the seat adjuster switch to
adjust the seat. Pressing any of the seat adjuster switches,
the SET button or pressing the desired memory button
twice will cause the seat to stop moving.
If you push the numbered button to adjust the seat
and start the vehicle while the seat is still adjusting,
adjustment will pause while the ignition is in START.
Adjustment will resume after the ignition is in RUN.Heated Front Seats (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this
feature, the controls are
located on the outboard
side of the seats.
This feature will quickly heat the lower cushion and
lower back of the driver's and front passenger's seats
for added comfort.
Press the lower part of the switch to turn the heater on
low. Press the upper part of the switch to turn the heater
on high. Put the switch in the center position to turn the
heater off.
The passenger's safety belt must be engaged for the
heated seat feature to work on the passenger's seat.

1-6 Reclining Front Seatbacks
To adjust a manual seatback, lift the lever on the
outboard side of the seat.
Release the lever to lock the seatback where you
want it. Pull up on the lever and the seat will go to
an upright position.
If your vehicle is equipped with the vertical power seat
control described earlier, it allows the seatback to
recline also.
But don't have a seatback reclined if your vehicle
is moving.

1-8 Seatback Latches
The front seatbacks fold
forward to let people get
into the back seat or to
access the storage area
behind the seat.
To fold a front seatback
forward, move the lever
located on the side of the
seat rearward and pull the
seatback forward.
To return the seatback to the upright position, push the
seatback all the way back until the latch catches. If the
seatback was reclined before being folded forward, it
will return to the reclined position.
CAUTION:
If the seatback isn't locked, it could move forward
in a sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury
to the person sitting there. Always press rearward
on the seatback to be sure it is locked.
Easy Entry Seat (2-Door Models)
The right front seat of your vehicle makes it easy to get
in and out of the rear seat.
1. Tilt the right front seatback completely forward and
the whole seat will slide forward.
2. Move the seatback to its original position after
someone gets into the rear seat area. Then move
the seat rearward until it locks.
CAUTION:
If an easy entry right front seat isn't locked, it
can move. In a sudden stop or crash, the person
sitting there could be injured. After you've used
it, be sure to push rearward on an easy entry seat
to be sure it is locked.
Tilt the seatback completely forward and slide the whole
seat forward again to get out.
