Front seat adjustment
The front seat position can be adjust-
ed by pressing the control switches
on the doors. Before driving, adjust
the seat position, as desired, so as to
easily control the steering wheel,
pedals and instrument-panel but-
tons.
The power seat is operated byelectric motors. Pause the motor
operation after each seat-position
adjustment. Excessive motor
operation may damage the elec-
tric equipment.
The operation of a power seat consumes a large amount of elec-
tric power. To prevent unneces-
sary battery drain, when the
engine is turned OFF, do not
adjust the power seat longer than
necessary.
Do not press two power seat con- trol switches or more at the same
time. Doing so may fail the electric
motor or components.
NOTICE
2-4
Safety system of your vehicle
Do not adjust the seat while fastening a seat belt. Moving
the seat cushion forward may
apply strong pressure on the
abdomen.
While adjusting the seat posi- tion, use extreme caution not
to caught hands or other
objects inside the seat com-
ponents.
Do not leave a cigarette lighter on the floor mat or
seat. The operation of seat
adjustment may leak gas out
of the lighter and cause a fire.
Use extreme caution when picking small objects trapped
under the seats or between
the seat and the center con-
sole. Your hands might be cut
or injured by the sharp edges
of the seat mechanism.
WARNING
Do not adjust the seat position,
while fastening a seat belt.
Moving the seat cushion forward
may apply strong pressure on the
abdomen.
CAUTION
The power seat is operable,
even when the ignition is OFF.
Therefore, children should
never be left unattended in the
vehicle.
CAUTION

Lumbar support (for driver’s seat)
The lumbar support can be adjusted
by pressing the lumbar support switch
on the side of the driver’s seat. Press
the front portion of the switch (1) to
increase support, or press the rear
portion (2) to decrease support.
Move the lumbar-support component
up or down by pressing either (3) or
(4).
Head Restraint
The driver’s and front passenger’s
seats are equipped with head
restraints for their safety and comfort.
The head restraints not only provide
comfort for the driver and front pas-
senger, but also protect their heads
and necks in the event of a collision.
2-6
Safety system of your vehicle
OVI035006N
OVI035103N
For maximum effects in caseof an accident, the median
height of a head restraint
should be adjusted to the
gravity center of the occu-
pant’s head.
Generally, the center of gravi-
ty of most people’s head is
located at the top of their
eyes. Also, adjust the head
restraint as close to your head
as possible. For this reason,
the use of a cushion, which
holds the body away from the
seatback, is not recommend-
ed.
Do not drive the vehicle with a head restraint removed,
because severe injury may
occur to an occupant in the
event of an accident. A prop-
erly-adjusted head restraint
may provide protection
against neck injury.
Do not adjust the driver's head restraint, while the vehi-
cle is in motion.
WARNING

Electronic active head restraint
The electronic active head restraint
is designed to automatically adjust
its position forwards and upwards,
when a rear impact is detected. This
helps to prevent the driver’s and front
passenger’s heads from moving
backwards and thus helps minimize
neck injuries.
The electronic active head
restraint is a safety device to
reduce injury in a rear impact. Do
not intentionally hit or pull the
head restraint.
Climate control system seat (if equipped)
This system cools or warms the front
seats by blowing air through small
vent holes both on the seat cushions
and on seatbacks.
While the engine is running, press
the rear portion of the button to cool
or warm the driver’s or the front pas-
senger’s seats.
When the operation of the climate
system seat is unnecessary, press
OFF the button.
Each time you press the button,
the air flow changes as follows:
When pressing the button for 1.5 seconds or over with the climate
control system ON, the climate
control system seat will be turned
OFF.
The default setting of the climate control system seat resets is OFF,
when the Engine Start/Stop Button
is turned ON.
With the climate control system seat ON, the system automatically
operates or stops in accordance
with a seat temperature.

The climate control system seatis a supplementary cooling and
warming system. Operate the
climate control system seat after
turning ON the climate control
system. Operate the climate
control seat for a prolonged
period of time without turning
ON the climate control system
may reduce performance of the
climate control system seat.
When cleaning the seats, do not use an organic solvent such as
thinner, benzene, alcohol and
gasoline. Such solvent may
damage the seat surface.
Do not spill liquid such as water or beverages over the front seat
cushions and seatbacks.
Otherwise, the air vent holes
may be blocked and prevent the
system from working properly.
Do not leave materials, such as plastic bags or newspapers,
under the seats. The air vent
hole may not properly operate,
because the air intake is
blocked.
When the air vent hole does not operate, restart the vehicle. If a
problem persists, we recom-
mend that the system be
inspected by an authorized
EQUUS dealer.
Seatback pocket
The seatback pockets are located on
the back of the driver's and the front
passenger’s seats.

tions to the desired position. Release

venience of rear seat occupants.

seats will automatically slide back-
wards to provide easier access. This
system operates only when the con-
trol switch is ON.
