Seats
The seat-bottom tilt, seat height, seat
slide, and seat recline can be electrically
adjusted. Move them to the desired
positions by using the switch on the seat’s
lower side.

Seat Slide
To slide the seat, move the slide lifter
switch on the outside of the seat to the
front or back and hold it. Release the
switch at the desired position.

Seat Recline
Change the seatback angle by turning the
reclining switch. When the seatback is at
the desired angle, release the switch.
Front Seats
•The seat-bottom power adjust is
operated by a motor. Avoid
extended operation because
excessive use can damage the
motor.
•To prevent the battery from running
down, avoid using the power adjust
when the engine is stopped. The
adjuster uses a great amount of
electric power.
•Don’t use the switch to make more
than one adjustment at a time.
CAUTION
Reclining:
Sitting in a reclined position while the
vehicle is moving is dangerous
because you don’t get the full
protection from seat belts. During
sudden braking or a collision, you
can slide under the lap belt and suffer
serious internal injuries. For
maximum protection, sit well back
and upright.
