Seats and Seat Controls
This section tells you about the seats -- how to adjust
them, and fold them up and down.
Manual Front Seat
You can lose control of the vehicle if you try to
adjust a manual driver’s seat while the vehicle is
moving. The sudden movement could startle and
confuse 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 of the standard seat
toward the driver’s door 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.
