Seats and Restraints 27
Head Restraints
On vehicles with factory installed
seats, the front seats have built-in
head restraints that are not
adjustable in the outboard seating
positions.
Front Seats
Seat Adjustment
{Warning
You can lose control of the
vehicle if you try to adjust a driver
seat while the vehicle is moving.
Adjust the driver seat only when
the vehicle is not moving.
To adjust the seat:1. Lift the bar under the front edge of the seat cushion to
unlock the seat.
2. Slide the seat to the desired position and release the bar.
3. Try to move the seat back and forth to be sure the seat is
locked in place.
Power Seat Adjustment
{Warning
The power seats will work with
the ignition off. Children could
operate the power seats and be
injured. Never leave children
alone in the vehicle.

38 Seats and Restraints
To unlatch the belt, push the button
on the buckle. The belt should
return to its stowed position. Slide
the latch plate up the seat belt
webbing when the seat belt is not in
use. The latch plate should rest on
the stitching on the seat belt, near
the guide loop on the side wall.
Always stow the seat belt slowly.
If the seat belt webbing returns
quickly to the stowed position, the
retractor may lock and cannot be
pulled out. If this happens, pull the
seat belt straight out firmly to unlock
the webbing, and then release it.
If the webbing is still locked in the
retractor, see your dealer.Before a door is closed, be sure the
seat belt is out of the way. If a door
is slammed against a seat belt,
damage can occur to both the seat
belt and the vehicle.
Seat Belt Height Adjuster
The vehicle has a seat belt height
adjuster for the driver and front
outboard passenger positions.
Adjust the height so the shoulder
portion of the belt is on the shoulder
and not falling off of it. The belt
should be close to, but not
contacting, the neck. Improper
shoulder belt height adjustment
could reduce the effectiveness of
the seat belt in a crash. See
How to
Wear Seat Belts Properly 034.
Squeeze both sides of the release
button and pull outward. Then move
the height adjuster up or down to
the desired position and release the
button.
After the adjuster is set to the
desired position, try to move it up or
down without squeezing the release
button to make sure it has locked
into position.
Seat Belt Pretensioners
If the vehicle has seat-mounted side
impact airbags and roof-rail airbags,
it also has seat belt pretensioners
for the front outboard occupants.
