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
located 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 located 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.

1-6
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.

1-7 Rear Seats
Bucket Seats
You may have rear bucket seats with an adjustment
release bar located 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 located 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.

1-8
To adjust your seatback, pull up on the lever located on
the lower outside of the seat.
To raise or lower the center
console, press the button
located between the
beverage holders. Sit in the
center seating position only
when the console is in an
upright and locked position.
For details about headrests, see ªHead Restraintsº in
this section.
