WARNING
●Do not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,
you could be thrown into it and receive
neck or other serious injuries. You
could also slide under the lap belt and
receive serious internal injuries. ●
For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back in the
seat with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat properly. See “Precau-
tions on seat belt usage” later in this
section.
● After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.
● Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly ac-
tivate switches or controls. Unattended
children could become involved in seri-
ous accidents. ●
The seatback should not be reclined
any more than needed for comfort. Seat
belts are most effective when the pas-
senger sits well back and straight up in
the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the
risk of sliding under the lap belt and
being injured is increased.

Forward and backward
Pull the center of the bar up and hold it while you
slide the seat forward or backward to the desired
position. Release the bar to lock the seat in
position.
Reclining
To recline the seatback, pull the lever up and lean
back. To bring the seatback forward, pull the lever
up and lean your body forward. Release the lever
to lock the seatback in position.
The reclining feature allows adjustment of the
seatback for occupants of different sizes for
added comfort and to help obtain proper seat
belt fit. See “Precautions on seat belt usage” later
in this section. Also, the seatback can be reclined
to allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is
stopped and the transmission is in P (Park) or N
(Neutral) position with the parking brake fully
applied.
Seat lifter (if so equipped for driver’s
seat)
Pull up or push down the adjusting lever to adjust
the seat height until the desired position is
achieved.

Lumbar support (if so equipped for
driver’s seat)
The lumbar support feature provides lower back
support to the driver. Push the switch (Type A)
forward or backward or move the lever (Type B)
up or down to adjust the seat lumbar area.
Entry to the rear seat from outside of
the vehicle (if so equipped for Coupe
models)
Pull the seat recliner lever to the uppermost po-
sition folding the seatback forward, releasing the
seat track.
Slide the entire seat forward for access to the
rear seat.
To return the seat to a locked position:
Push the upper seatback rearward until the seat-
back and track are locked.

Operating tips:● The seatback and track will not lock until the
seatback is returned rearward.
● The seatback will return to the first locking
notch when using the seat recliner lever.

To fold down the driver’s side of the rear seat,
reach through the opening and pull on the strap
1located behind the seat.
The rear seats can be locked using the mechani-
cal key to prevent unauthorized access. For more
information on keys, refer to “Keys” in the “Pre-
driving checks and adjustments” section of this
manual.
Center armrest (if so equipped)
Pull the armrest down until it is horizontal.
