Manual Cushion Tilt (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this feature, you can raise or lower
the front of the driver's or passenger's seat with this
lever located at the inside edge of the seat. To raise or
lower the front of the seat, move the lever up or down in
a continuous motion until the cushion reaches the
desired height.
Manual Lumbar Control (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has a lumbar
adjustment, the knob is
located on the outboard side
of the seat cushion.
To increase or decrease support, turn the knob toward
the front or rear of the vehicle. Operating effort can
be reduced if you lean forward slightly while turning
the knob.

Trailer Recommendations
You must subtract your hitch loads from the Cargo
Weight Rating (CWR) for your vehicle. CWR is the
maximum weight of the load your vehicle can carry.
It doesn't included the weight of the people inside.
But you can figure about 150 lbs. (68 kg) for each seat.
The total cargo load must not be more than your
vehicle's CWR.
Weigh your vehicle with the trailer attached, so that you
won't go over the GVWR or GAWR. If you are using a
weight
-distributing hitch, weigh the vehicle without the
equalizer bars in place.
You'll get the best performance if you spread out the
weight of your load the right way, and if you choose the
correct hitch and trailer brakes.
For more information, see ªTrailer Towingº in
the Index.
Towing a Trailer
CAUTION:
If you don't use the correct equipment and
drive properly, you can lose control when you
pull a trailer. For example, if the trailer is too
heavy, the brakes may not work well
-- or even
at all. You and your passengers could be seriously
injured. Pull a trailer only if you have followed
all the steps in this section. Ask your dealer for
advice and information about towing a trailer
with your vehicle.
