FRONT POWER SEAT ADJUSTMENT
Operating tips
●The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 seconds
then reactivate the switch.
● Do not operate the power seat switch for a
long period of time when the engine is off.
This will discharge the battery.
For additional information, refer to “Automatic
drive positioner” in the “Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section of this manual.
Forward and backward
Moving the switch forward or backward will slide
the seat forward or backward to the desired
position.
Reclining
Move the recline switch backward until the de-
sired angle is obtained. To bring the seatback
forward again, move the switch forward and
move your body forward. The seatback will move
forward. The reclining feature allows adjustment of the
seatback for occupants of different sizes for
added comfort and to help obtain proper seat
belt fit. For additional information, refer to “Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” in this section. Also,
the seatback can be reclined to allow occupants
to rest when the vehicle is stopped and the shift
lever is in P (Park) .
LRS0633
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-3

●Disconnect and secure the center seat belt
and tongues into the retractor base. For
additional information, refer to “Stowing the
3rd row center seat belt” in this section.
– Always reconnect the center seat belt when the seat is returned to the upright
position.
● Make sure that there are no objects on the
seatback cushion.
CAUTION
Make sure the seat(s) is returned to the
full upright position before a passenger
sits in the seat(s) .
When folding or returning the seat(s) to
the upright position, to avoid injury to
yourself and others:
● Make sure that the seat path is clear
before moving the seat.
● Be careful not to allow hands or feet to
get caught or pinched in the seat. To raise the 3rd row seats, push and hold the top
portion of the switch.
A chime will sound one time to indicate the start
of the operation.
One long continuous warning chime will sound if
the seat isn’t in the full upright or folded position
when the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position. If the warning beep is still present after
one complete cycle and if the seats are in the full
upright or folded position, bring your vehicle in for
service.
If the ignition switch is off, the power folding
seats are always operational. If the ignition switch is on, the power folding seats
are only operational when the shift selector is in P
(Park) or N (Neutral) .
If the engine is started during operation, the
seat(s) will temporarily pause.
NOTE:
Operating the power folding seats can dis-
charge the vehicle battery if the vehicle is
not running.
