driving position.
2. Press the SET button and then press and hold button 1
(for driver) for three seconds. A chime will sound to
let you know that the position has been stored.
A second seating and mirror position can be
programmed by repeating the procedure with a second
driver and pressing button 2 for three seconds. Each
time button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while the

recalled. Each time a memory button is pressed, a
single chime will sound.3. To program your keyless entry transmitter, if
equipped, press the UNLOCK button within five

memory button you just stored. The seat will move to
the set position. You will hear one chime.

Reclining Seatbacks
If your vehicle is equipped with power seats, see ªPower
Seatsº earlier in this section for information on reclining
the seatback.
To adjust a manual
front seatback, lift the
lever on the outboard side
of the seat.

Pull up on the lever without pushing on the seatback and
the seat will go to an upright position.

1-7
But don't have a seatback reclined if your vehicle is
moving.
CAUTION:
Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicle is
in motion can be dangerous. Even if you buckle
up, your safety belts can't do their job when
you're reclined like this.
The shoulder belt can't do its job because it
won't be against your body. Instead, it will be in
front of you. In a crash you could go into it,
receiving neck or other injuries.
The lap belt can't 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.

1-8 Head Restraints
Head restraints are fixed on some models and adjustable
on others. Slide an adjustable head restraint up or down
so that the top of the restraint is closest to the top of
your head. This position reduces the chance of a neck
injury in a crash.
Seatback Latches (Regular or Extended
Cab Only)
The front seatback folds forward to let people get into
the rear seat or to access the storage area behind the seat.
To fold the front
seatback forward,
push the lever on
the side of the seat
rearward and pull the
seatback forward.

1-9
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 (If Equipped)
The right front bucket or split-bench seat on some
models makes it easy to get in and out of the rear
vehicle area.
1. Tilt the right front seatback completely forward and
the whole seat will slide forward.
2. Return 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 and slide the seat completely forward
again to get out of the rear vehicle area.

1-10 Jump Seat (Extended Cab Models)
Your extended cab
pickup has a jump seat in
the rear area.
To fold the jump seat down, pull down on the pull tab
on the bottom of the seat until the seat is in place, then
move the seatback to a vertical position. To store the
seat, fold the seatback down on the cushion, then push
the entire seat up until it is flush with the trim panel.
Don't let the safety belts be damaged by the hinges or
the latches. Safety belts should be folded and stored
between the seat cushion and seatback.
Rear Seat (Crew Cab)
The rear seatback can be tilted forward to let you reach
the area behind it.
To tilt the seatback
forward, lift up on the lever
located at the base of the
seatback on the driver's or
passenger's side. Then tilt
the seatback forward.
To return the seatback to the upright position, push the
seatback rearward until it latches. After returning the
seatback to its upright position, try to pull the seatback
forward to make sure it is locked.

Safety Belts: They're for Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to use safety belts
properly. It also tells you some things you should not do
with safety belts.
And it explains the air bag system.
CAUTION:
Don't let anyone ride where he or she can't wear
a safety belt properly. If you are in a crash and
you're not wearing a safety belt, your injuries
can be much worse. You can hit things inside the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be seriously
injured or killed. In the same crash, you might
not be if you are buckled up. Always fasten your
safety belt, and check that your passengers' belts
are fastened properly too.
CAUTION:
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area,
inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. Do not allow people to
ride in any area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and safety belts. Be sure
everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a
safety belt properly.

1-12
Your vehicle has a light
that comes on as a reminder
to buckle up. See ªSafety
Belt Reminder Lightº in
the Index.
In most states and Canadian provinces, the law says to
wear safety belts. Here's why: They work.
You never know if you'll be in a crash. If you do have a
crash, you don't know if it will be a bad one.
A few crashes are mild, and some crashes can be so
serious that even buckled up a person wouldn't survive.
But most crashes are in between. In many of them,
people who buckle up can survive and sometimes walk
away. Without belts they could have been badly hurt
or killed.
After more than 30 years of safety belts in vehicles,
the facts are clear. In most crashes buckling up does
matter ... a lot!Why Safety Belts Work
When you ride in or on anything, you go as fast as
it goes.
Take the simplest vehicle. Suppose it's just a seat
on wheels.

Put someone on it.Get it up to speed. Then stop the vehicle. The rider
doesn't stop.
