B080B04A-AATFront Seat
Adjusting seat forward and rearwardTo move the seat toward the front or rear,
pull the lock release lever upward. This will
release the seat on its track so you can
move it forward or rearward to the desired
position. When you find the position you
want, release the lever and slide the seat
forward or rearward on its track until it locks
into the desired position and cannot be
moved further.
WARNING:
After adjusting the seat, always check
that it is securely locked into place by
attempting to move the seat forward or
rearward without using the lock release
lever. Sudden or unexpected move-
ment of the driver's seat could cause
you to lose control of the vehicle result-
ing in an accident.

unexpected movement of the seat
could cause you to lose control of the
vehicle resulting in an accident. Only
adjust the driver’s seat when the ve-

B080C03A-AATAdjusting Seatback AngleTo recline the seatback, lean forward to
take your weight off it, then pull up on the
recliner control lever at the outside edge of
the seat. Now lean back until the desired
seatback angle is achieved. To lock the
seatback into position, release the recliner
control lever.
!
WARNING:
Riding with a reclined seatback in-
creases your chance of serious or fatal
injuries in the event of a collision or
sudden stop. The protection of your re-
straint system (seat belts and air bags)
is greatly reduced by reclining your seat.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly. The
more the seatback is reclined, the greater
the chance that an occupant's hips will
slide under the lap belt or the occupant's
neck will strike the shoulder belt. Driv-
ers and passengers should always sit
well back in their seats, properly belted,
and with the seatbacks upright.
B080D01CM-AATAdjustable HeadrestsHeadrests are designed to help reduce
the risk of neck injuries. To raise the head-
rest, pull it up. To lower the headrest, push
it down while pressing the lock knob. To
remove the headrest, raise it as far as it can
go then press the release button while
pulling upward. This should only be done
when the seat is not occupied.
To reinstall the headrest, put the headrest
poles(1) into the holes while pressing the
release button(2). Then adjust it to the
appropriate height.

WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident, the headrest should be
adjusted so the middle of the head-
rest is at the same height of the center
of gravity of an occupant's head. Gen-
erally, the center of gravity of most
people's head is similar with the height
of the top of their eyes. Also, adjust
the headrest as close to your head as
possible. For this reason, the use of a
cushion that holds the body away from
the seatback is not recommended.o Do not operate vehicle with the head-
rests removed as injury to the occu-
pants may occur in the event of an
accident. Headrests may provide pro-
tection against neck injuries when
properly adjusted.
o Do not adjust the headrest position of
the driver's seat while the vehicle is in
motion.
B081D01CM-AATAdjusting Headrest Forward and
RearwardThe headrest may be adjusted forward to
three different positions by pulling the head-
rest forward. To adjust the headrest rear-
ward, pull it fully forward to the farthest
position and release it. Adjust the headrest
so that it properly supports the head and
neck.
