Seats and Seat Controls
This section tells you about the power seats -- how to
adjust them, and also about the reclining front seatbacks,
memory seats, lumbar adjustments and heated seats.
Power Seats
The power seat controls
are located on the
outboard side of the
front seat cushions.

Move the front of the seat control up or down to
adjust the front portion of the cushion.

Move the rear of the seat control up or down to
adjust the rear portion of the cushion.

Lift up or push down on the center of the seat control
to move the entire seat up or down.

To move the seat forward or rearward, slide the seat
control forward or rearward.
Four Way Power Lumbar Control
(If Equipped)
If you have this feature, the
driver's and passenger's
seatback lumbar support
can be adjusted four ways
by moving a single switch
located on the outboard side
of the seat.
To increase or decrease support, hold the switch forward
or rearward. To move the lumbar up or down, hold the
switch up or down.
Keep in mind that as your seating position changes, as it
may during long trips, so should the position of your
lumbar support. Adjust the seat as needed.

1-3 Massaging Lumbar (If Equipped)
Push the top of the lumbar
control located on the
outboard side of the seat
where it is marked AUTO
briefly to activate the
massage feature.
The massage cycle will run continuously for up to
10 minutes and can be interrupted by pushing the
lumbar control down briefly. The lumbar support can
be adjusted during the massage cycle by moving the
switch forward to increase support and rearward to
decrease support. The massage cycle will continue
to run even if the ignition is turned to OFF,
unless interrupted.
Four-Way Rear Power Lumbar
(If Equipped)
Four-way lumbar, without
the massage feature, is also
available for the outboard
rear seating positions.
To activate the rear lumbar feature, push forward on the
switch located on the rear door trim to increase support
or rearward to decrease support. The lumbar switch can
also be moved up and down to adjust the location of
the support.

1-4 Adaptive Seat Control (Option)
The adaptive seat control is
located on the outboard side
of the driver's seat. Use the
power seat control first to
get the proper position.When the ignition is turned to ON, press the top of
the power lumbar control where it is marked AUTO to
activate the adaptive feature. The seatback and cushion
will inflate to adjust to the driver's body positioning in
four
-minute cycles.
To reshape the lower seatback, press the lumbar
control forward to increase support and rearward to
decrease support.
To turn off the adaptive seat feature, press the control
down. The seat will deflate when the adaptive seat
control or the ignition is turned off.

1-7
Your vehicle may have heated front and rear seats. The
buttons are located on the armrests. The HEAT/OFF
button controls the temperature settings HI, MED
and LO. The other button is to choose BACK ONLY
heating. The LO setting warms the seatback and cushion
until the seat approximates body temperature. The MED
and HI settings heat the seatback and seat cushion to a
slightly higher temperature, and the BACK ONLY heats
only the seatback. The temperature can be adjusted
by pushing the button from HI to LO or, until the
desired setting is reached. You will be able to feel heat
in approximately two minutes. To heat just the seatback,
push the BACK ONLY button once, after first activating
the heated seat feature. To turn off the heat in the
seatback, push the button again. The feature will
also shut off when the ignition is turned to OFF.Reclining Front Seatbacks
Press the recliner control
located on the outboard
side of the seat, forward
or rearward to adjust
the seatback.
Push the recliner control up or down to adjust the
shoulder belt height. See ªShoulder Belt Height
Adjusterº in the Index for more information.

1-9 Head Restraints
Slide the 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.
The head restraints tilt forward and rearward also.
The rear seat head restraints in your vehicle may be
adjustable. They work the same as the front seat
head restraints.
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 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.
