Seats and Seat Controls
This part tells you about the seats -- how to adjust them,
and also about reclining front seatbacks, head restraints,
easy entry seats and the folding rear seatback.
Manual Front Seat
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.
Lift the lever under the front seat to unlock it. Slide the
seat to where you want it. Release the lever and try to
move the seat with your body to make sure the seat is
locked into place.

1-3 Reclining Front Seatbacks
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.

1-5 Easy Entry Seats (2-Door)
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 can
slide forward when pushed by hand.
After someone gets into the rear seat area, move the
seat rearward until it locks. Then move the seatback
to its original position.
CAUTION:
If any easy entry seat isn't locked, it can move.
In a sudden stop or crash, the person sitting there
could be injured. And, even if there is no crash or
sudden stop, a driver sitting in an unlocked easy
entry seat could be startled by the sudden
movement and hit the wrong control or pedal,
causing an accident. After you've used it, be sure
to push rearward on any easy entry seat to be
sure it is locked.

To raise the rear seat:
1. Unhook the anchor plate from the button on the
seat back.
2. Fold the rear seatback up and make sure it is locked
in position. Push and pull on the seatback to ensure
it's locked in position.
3. Remove the head restraint and insert it into the
seatback. Make sure the head restraint is secure in
the seatback.
4. Insert the anchor plate into its storage slot on the
bottom of the seat cushion.
5. Fold the seat cushion back and make sure it is locked
into position.
6. Remove the safety belt buckles and center safety belt
from the seatback pocket.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.
And it explains the Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS), or air bag system.
CAUTION:
Don't let anyone ride where he or she 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.
