Adjusting the Seats
Make seat adjustments before driving to ensure the best comfort and safety.
Adjusting the Front Seats
Adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible while 
allowing you to maintain full control of the vehicle.
You should be able to sit upright and well back in the 
seat, adequately press the pedals without leaning 
forward, and grip the steering wheel comfortably. 
The passenger’s seat should be adjusted so that it 
is as far back from the front airbag in the dashboard 
as possible.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada
recommend that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the center of the 
steering wheel and the chest.
Driver’s power seat*
Move back and allow sufficient space.
*if equipped
Automatic (AUTO) Rain-Sensing Wipers*
When you move the lever to the AUTO position
while driving in rainy weather, the wipers operate
based on the amount of detected rainfall.
Put the lever in the AUTO position only when driving
in rainy weather.
Rotate the adjustment ring to adjust the rainfall
sensor sensitivity.
Return the lever to the OFF position when rain stops.
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. The windshield will get 
scratched, or the rubber blades will get damaged.
In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the windshield, becoming stuck. 
Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the de\
froster
or heated windshield button* to warm the windshield, or manually clear the 
windshield of ice and snow before turning on the wipers.
NOTICE

wipers are activated, the rear wiper activates
even if the switch is off.

Adjusting the Head Restraints
Your vehicle is equipped with head restraints in all seating positions. Head 
restraints are most effective for protection against whiplash and other \
rear-impact
crash injuries.
The center of the back of the occupant’s head 
should rest against the center of the restraint. The
tops of the occupant’s ears should be level with the 
center height of the restraint.
Front and rear center seat head restraints
To raise the head restraint: Pull it upward.
To lower the head restraint: Push it down while
pressing the release button.
To remove the head restraint: Pull the restraint up as
far as it will go. Then push the release button, and 
pull the restraint up and out.
To reinstall a head restraint:
 Insert the legs back 
in place, then adjust the head restraint to an
appropriate height while pressing the release button. 
Pull up on the restraint to make sure it is locked in
position.
Rear outer seat head restraints
To fold down the head restraint: Pull up on the strap.
To return the head restraint to its upright position:
Pull up the head restraint and push it back until it 
latches into place.
In order for the head restraint system to work properly:
• Do not hang any items on the head restraints, or from the restraint legs.
• Do not place any object between an occupant and the seat-back.
• Install each restraint in its proper location.
Height adjustment (Driver’s seat only) Pull up or push down the lever to
raise or lower the seat.
Seat-back angle
Pull up the lever to
change the angle.
Horizontal position adjustment
Pull up on the bar to move the seat, then release the bar.
Position head in the
center of the head
restraint.
Strap
Improperly positioning head restraints reduces their effectiveness and 
increases the likelihood of serious injury in a crash.
Make sure head restraints are in place and positioned properly before driving.
