To adjust the front seatback using
the manual recliner:
²Lift and hold the handle located
on the side of the seat.
²Lean against the seatback to
adjust it to your desired position.

bring it forward.
²Release the handle when the desired position has been reached.
Using the power lumbar support (if equipped)
The power lumbar control is located
on the outboard side of the seat.
Press one side of the control to
adjust firmness.

Adjusting the power front seats ± door mounted controls
The controls for the power seats are located on the inside of each front
door.
Never adjust the driver's seat or seatback when the vehicle is
moving.
Do not pile cargo higher than the seatbacks to avoid injuring
people in a collision or sudden stop.
Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap
belt snug and low across the hips.
Reclining the seatback can reduce the effectiveness of the seat's
safety belt in the event of a collision.
