Adjusting the Seats
Adjusting the Seat Positions
Adjust the driver's seat as far back as possible
while allowing you to ma intain full control of
the vehicle. You should be able to sit upright,
well back in the seat and be able to
adequately press the pedals without leaning
forward, and grip the steering wheel
comfortably. The passenger's seat should be
adjusted in a similar manner, so that it is as far
back from the front airbag in the dashboard
as possible.1 Adjusting the Seats
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
and Transport Cana da recommend that drivers allow
at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the center of the
steering wheel and the chest.
Always make seat adjustments before driving.
Once a seat is adjusted co rrectly, rock it back and
forth to make sure it is locked in position.
3WARNING
Sitting too close to a front airbag can result
in serious injury or death if the front
airbags inflate.
Always sit as far back from the front
airbags as possible while maintaining
control of the vehicle.
Move back.
Allow sufficient
space.

Controls
Adjust the driver's sea t-back to a comfortable,
upright position, leaving ample space
between your chest and the airbag cover in
the center of the steering wheel.
The passenger should also adjust their seat-
back to a comfortable, upright position.
Reclining a seat-back so that the shoulder pa rt of the belt no longer rests against the
occupant's chest reduces the protective capa bility of the belt. It also increases the
chance of sliding under the belt in a crash and being seriously injured. The farther a
seat-back is reclined, the greater the risk of injury.
■Adjusting the Seat-Backs1 Adjusting the Seat-Backs
Do not put a cushion, or other object, between the
seat-back and your back.
Doing so may interfere with proper seat belt or airbag
operation.
If you cannot get far e nough away from the steering
wheel and still reach th e controls, we recommend
that you investigate whether some type of adaptive
equipment may help.
3WARNING
Reclining the seat-back too far can result in
serious injury or death in a crash.
Adjust the seat-back to an upright position,
and sit well back in the seat.

Your vehicle is equipped with head restraints in both seating positions. However,
they are non-adjustable.
Head restraints are most effective for pr otection against whiplash and other rear-
impact crash injuries.
Head restraints can be removed for cleaning or repair.
To remove the head restraint:
1.Unhook the strap on the outside edge of
the seat-back.
2. Pull out the strap throughout the band on
the outside under edge of the head
restraint.
3. Push the release button, and pull the head
restraint upward.

To install the head restraint:
1.Put the legs back in place, then slightly
lower it.
u Do not push it down fully until it locks in
place.
2. Insert the strap onto th e band, then hook it
to the magnet on the outside edge of the
seat-back.
3. Push the head restraint down until it locks.
Make sure the head restraint locks in place
when you reinstall it.
After all occupants have adjusted their seats, and put on their seat belts, it is very
important that they continue to sit upright, well back in their seats, with their feet
on the floor, until the vehicle is safely parked and the engine is off.
Sitting improperly can increase the chance of injury during a crash. For example, if
an occupant slouches, lies down, turns si deways, sits forward, leans forward or
sideways, or puts one or both feet up, the chance of injury during a crash is greatly
increased.
In addition, an occupant who is out of position in the seat can be seriously or fatally
injured in a crash by striking interior parts of the vehicle or being struck by an
inflating front airbag.

Controls
The driver’s and passenger’s seats have active
head restraints. In a rear impact, an occupant
properly secured by a seat belt will be pushed
against the seat-back and the head restraint
will move forward. This reduces the distance
between the restraint and the occupant’s
head, which helps reduce the likelihood of
whiplash and injuries to the neck and upper
spine.
■Active Head Restraints1 Active Head Restraints
In order for the active head restraints to operate
properly:
•Do not hang any items on the head restraints, or
from the restraint legs.
•Do not place any objects between an occupant and
the seat-back.
•Install each restraint in its proper location.
After collision, the activated restraint should return to
its normal position. If the restraint does not return to
its normal position, or in the event of a severe
collision, have your vehicle inspected by a dealer.
