Seats and Seat Controls
This section tells you about the seats -- how to adjust
them, take them out and put them back in. It also tells
you about bucket and bench seats, power seats and
head restraints.
Manual Front Seats
CAUTION:
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.
2-Way Front Seat
The bucket seats can be
adjusted forward or
rearward by the lever
at the front of the seat.
Move the seat adjustment lever at the front of the 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.

1-4 Reclining Seatbacks
There is a lever on the inside of the seat to adjust
the seatback.
You can adjust the seatback
by lifting the lever and
leaning back. Release the
lever to lock the seatback
where you want it. Pull up
on the lever, lean forward
and the seat will go to an
upright position.
But don't have a seatback reclined if your vehicle
is moving.

To fold your non-touring
bench seatback forward,
pull up on the latch release
lever while pulling the
seatback toward the rear of
the vehicle.
After the latch has been released, push the seatback
toward the front of the vehicle until it locks in place. To
raise the seatback, unlock the seatback latch by pushing
up on the lever while pushing down on the upper edge
of the seatback. Move the seatback into the upright
position. Make sure the seatback is locked when it is
back in the upright position.
CAUTION:
If the seatback isn't locked, it could move forward
in a sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury
to the person sitting there. Always press rearward
on the seatback to be sure it is locked.
Rear Seats
Bucket Seats
You may have rear bucket seats with an adjustment
release bar at the front of the seats. These seats can be
adjusted forward or rearward with the release bar. Pull
the release bar up to release the seat bottom and slide the
seat where you want it. Then let go of the release bar
and try to move the seat with your body, to make sure
the seat is locked into place.

Bench Seats
If you have bench seats in your vehicle, each seat can
carry up to three passengers. They can also be removed
to increase storage space.
The center bench and rear bench seats can be adjusted
forward or rearward by the lever at the front of the seat.
Move the seat adjustment
lever at the front of the seat
toward the passenger's side
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.
The non
-touring center bench seat has a pivoting
right armrest. The left armrest can also be used as a
storage compartment.
The optional touring bench seats come with moveable
armrests, individual reclining seatbacks, adjustable
headrests and a fold
-down center armrest console.
To adjust your seatback, pull up on the lever on the
lower outside of the seat.
The center bench seatbacks will recline further back
than the rear bench seatbacks.

the guide.
3. To store the safety belt
while the second row

belt out and put both
buckles in the
passenger's side rear
storage bin.
Route the belt out of the forward edge of the storage bin.
Close the cover to retain the belt.

seat. Push the seatback down until it locks in place

2. Pull the seat down to latch the rear retainers. Make
sure the seat is locked in by pulling up and down on
the seat.
CAUTION:
A seat that isn't locked into place properly can
move around in a collision or sudden stop. People
in the vehicle could be injured. Be sure to lock
the seat into place properly when installing it.
3. To raise the seatback on vehicles equipped with the
non
-touring seat, unlock the seatback latch by
pushing up on the latch release lever at the right rear
of the seat, while pushing down on the upper edge of
the seatback. Move the seatback into the upright
position. Make sure the seatback is locked when it is
back in the upright position.
4. If you are replacing the center seat, connect the right
lap
-shoulder belt to the attachment on the seat
cushion. If you have a safety belt guide on your seat,
pull the belt through the guide before reattaching the
lap
-shoulder belt to the side of the seat. The release
hole should be facing outward.
If you installed the safety belt with the release hole
facing inward (toward the seat), slide the plastic
cover up so you can see the buckle. Disconnect the
seat belt. Slide the cover back down and reinstall the
belt correctly.
