Head Restraints — Rear Seats
The head restraints on the outboard seats are not adjustable. They automatically fold
forward when the rear seat is folded to a load floor position but do not return to their
normal position when the rear seat is raised. After returning either seat to its upright
position, raise the head restraint until it locks in place. The outboard head restraints
are not removable.
The center head restraint has limited adjustment. Lift upward on the head restraint
to raise it, or push downward on the head restraint to lower it.
WARNING!
Sitting in a seat with the head restraint in its lowered position could result in
serious injury or death in a collision. Always make sure the outboard head
restraints are in their upright positions when the seat is to be occupied.
NOTE:
For proper routing of a Child Seat Tether, refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things
To Know Before Starting” in your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further information.

REAR SEATS
60/40 Split Rear Seat
To Lower Rear Seat
Either side of the rear seat can be lowered to allow for extended cargo space and still
maintain some rear seating room.
NOTE:
Be sure that the front seats are fully upright and positioned forward. This will allow
the rear seatback to fold down easily.
1. Pull upward on the release lever to release the seat.
NOTE:
• Do not fold the 60% rear seat downwith the left outboard or rear center
seat belt buckled.
• Do not fold the 40% rear seat down with the right outboard seat belt
buckled.
2. Fold the rear seat completely forward.
NOTE:
You may experience deformation in the
seat cushion from the seat belt buckles if
the seats are left folded for an extended
period of time. This is normal and by
simply opening the seats to the open
position, over time the seat cushion will return to its normal shape.
To Raise Rear Seat
Raise the rear seatback and lock it into place. If interference from the cargo area
prevents the seatback from fully locking, you will have difficulty returning the seat to
its proper position.

• Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into position. If the seatback isnot securely locked into position the seat will not provide the proper stability
for child seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause
serious injury.
• The cargo area in the rear of the vehicle (with the rear seatbacks in the
locked-up or folded down position) should not be used as a play area by

• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age,chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
tion, or other physical conditions must exercise care when using the steering
wheel heater. It may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used
for long periods.
• Do not place anything on the steering wheel that insulates against heat, such
as a blanket or steering wheel covers of any type and material. This may cause
the steering wheel heater to overheat.

For the first 1500 miles (2414 km):
• Do not participate in track events, sport driving schools, or similar activities duringthe first 1500 miles (2414 km).
NOTE:
Check engine oil with every refueling and add if necessary. Oil and fuel consumption
may be higher through the first oil change interval.
HEADLIGHT SWITCH
The headlight switch is located on the left side of the instrument panel, next to the
steering wheel. The headlight switch controls the operation of the headlights, parking
lights, instrument panel lights, cargo lights and fog lights (if equipped).
To turn on the headlights, rotate the
headlight switch clockwise. When the
headlight switch is on, the parking lights,
taillights, license plate light and instru-
ment panel lights are also turned on. To
turn off the headlights, rotate the head-
light switch back to the O (Off) position.
NOTE:
• Your vehicle is equipped with plastic headlight and fog light (if equipped)
lenses that are lighter and less suscep-
tible to stone breakage than glass
lights. Plastic is not as scratch resis-
tant as glass and therefore different
lens cleaning procedures must be fol-
lowed.
• To minimize the possibility of scratch- ing the lenses and reducing light out-
put, avoid wiping with a dry cloth. To
remove road dirt, wash with a mild
soap solution followed by rinsing.
CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive cleaning components, solvents, steel wool or other abrasive
materials to clean the lenses.
