FRONT SEATS
Seat adjustment precautions
Adjust the driver's seat so that the foot pedals, steering
wheel and instrument panel controls are within easy reach
of the driver.
CAUTION!
Do not adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving
as the seat may unexpectedly move and cause the
driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Be careful not to hit the seat against a passenger,
luggage or the rear seat.
NOTICE
Do not operate the control switch in more than one
dimension at a time. It may cause electrical
overload.

Adjusting seat position
Move the control switch in the desired direction.
Releasing the switch will stop the seat in that position. Do not
place anything under the seat. It might interfere with the seat
movement.
Adjusting seatback angle
Move the control switch in the desired direction.
Releasing the switch will stop the seatback in that position.
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt
during a collision, avoid reclining the seatback any
more than needed. The seat belts provide maximum
protection in a frontal or rear collision when the the
driver and the passenger are sitting up straight and
well back in the seats. If you are reclined, the lap belt
may slide past your hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen. Therefore, in the event of
a frontal collision, the risk of personal injury may
increase with increasing recline of the seatback.
