Front seat adjustmentAdjusting the seat forward and back-
ward
To move the seat forward or backward:
1. Pull the seat slide adjustment lever
under the front edge of the seat cush-
ion up and hold it.
2. Slide the seat to the desired position.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seat is locked in place.
Adjust the seat before driving, and make
sure the seat is locked securely by trying
to move forward and backward without
using the control knob. If the seat moves,
it is not locked properly.
WARNING
- Loose objects
Loose objects in the driver’s foot
area could interfere with the opera-
tion of the foot pedals, possibly
causing an accident. Loose objects
might interfere with the seat slide
mechanism. Do not place anything
under the front seats.
WARNING
 Children should never be left unattended in the car.
 In order to avoid unnecessary air bag injuries including the possi-
bility of severe injury or death,
always sit as far back as possible
by moving the seat far back, while
still maintaining good vehicle
control. Serious injury or death
may be caused due to the deploy-
ment of the passenger’s air bag.
WARNING
- Driver’s seat
 Never attempt to adjust seat whilethe vehicle is moving. This could
result in loss of control, and an
accident causing death, serious
injury, or property damage.
 Do not allow anything to interfere with the normal position of the
seatback. Storing items against a
seatback or in any other way
interfering with proper locking of
a seatback could result in serious
or fatal injury in a sudden stop or
collision.
 Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap por-
tion of the safety belt, or lap belt,
snug and low across the hips.
This position puts your safety
belts in the best position to pro-
tect you in case of an accident.
 In order to avoid unnecessary air bag injuries including the possi-
bility of severe injury or death,
always sit as far back as possible
from the steering wheel so that
your chest is away at least 10
inches (250 mm) away from the
steering wheel.
