Front Seat
A You can lose control of the
L vehicle if you try to adjust a
manual driver’s seat while the
vehicle is moving. The sudden
movement could startle and
canfuse you, or make you push a
pedal when you don’t want to.
Adjust the driver’s seat only when
the vehicle is not moving.
Move the lever under the front seat to
unlock it. Slide the seat to where you
want it. Then release the lever and try
to move the seat with your
body, to
make sure the seat
is locked into place.

Reclining Front Se, iacks
To adjust the seatback, lift the lever on
the outer side of the seat. Release the
lever to lock
the seatback where you
want it. Pull up on the lever and
the seat
will go to its original upright position.
But don’t have a seatback reclined if
your vehicle is moving.
IW
Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicle is in motion can be
L dangerous. Even if you buckle up, your safety belts can’t do their job when
you’re reclined like this.
The shoulder belt can’t do its job because
it won’t be against your body. Instead,
it will be in front of you. In a crash you could go into it, receiving neck or other
injuries.
The lap belt can’t
do its job either. In a crash the belt could go up over your
abdomen. The belt forces would be there, not at your pelvic bones. This could
cause serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle is in motion, have the seatback upright.
Then sit well back in the seat and wear your safety belt properly.

Seats & Safety Belts
Head Restraints
Head restraints are fixed on some
vehicles and adjustable on others. Slide
an adjustable head restraint up or down
so that the top of the restraint is closest
to the top
of your ears. This position
reduces the chance
of a neck injury in a
crash. To
raise
or lower the restraint, push in
the release while you pull up or push
down on the restraint.
Easy Entry Seats
The front seats of your vehicle make it
easy to get in and out of the rear seat.
When you pull up on the recliner
release lever, the seatback
will tilt
forward and the whole seat will slide
forward.
After someone gets into the rear seat
area, move the seatback to its original
position. Then move the seat rearward
until it locks.

Safety Belts: They’re for
Everyone
This part of the manual tells you how to
use safety belts properly. It
also tells
you some things you should
not do with
safety belts.
~~~ ~
A
Don’t let anyone ride where
they can’t wear a safety belt
properly. If you are in a crash and
you’re not wearing
a safety belt,
your injuries can be
much worse.
You can hit things inside the
vehicle or be ejected from it.
You
can be seriously injured or killed.
In the same crash, you might not
be if you are buckled up. Always
fasten your safety belt, and check
that your passengers’ belts are
fastened properly too.
