Moving front passenger’s seat for rear seat entry (3-door models only)
Getting in the vehicle
For easy access to the rear seat, use the seatback lock release
lever. When the seatback lock release lever is used, the seat’s
original position is memorized, so the seat may be returned to that
original position. However, if the seatback angle adjustment lever
is used, the seat will not return to its original position.
Lift the seatback lock release
lever.
The seatback will fold forward,
and the seat’s slide lock will be
released.
Move the seat all the way for-
ward.
Getting out of the vehicle
Lift the seatback lock release
lever or seatback angle adjust-
ment lever.
The seatback will fold forward,
and the seat’s slide lock will be
released.
Move the seat all the way for-
ward.

After passengers have entered the vehicle (3-door models only)
Slide the seat backward and then lift the seatback. The seat will be set and
locked to its previous position automatically. If the seat cannot be slid back to
the previous position due to the rear passenger or luggage, the seat will be
locked in that position, disabling the seat position memory system.
To recall the previous position, lift the seatback lock release lever after
removing the luggage, or after having the passenger get out or sit properly
so that the seat can be slid back to the previous position. However, if you
slide the seat further backwards than previous position using the seat posi-
tion adjustment lever, the memory of previous position will be overwritten.
CAUTION
Seat adjustment
Be careful that the seat does not hit passengers or luggage.
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not
recline the seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpect-
edly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is locked in position.
Never allow anyone to touch seatback lock release levers while the vehi-
cle is moving.
If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure they are clear of the seat back path
and let them know that the seat is about to move.
After returning the seatback to the upright position
Make sure the seatback is securely locked by pushing it forward and rear-
ward. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
