Recline, and Power Lumbar shown

CAUTION: (Continued)
The shoulder belt cannot do its job. In a
crash, you could go into it, receiving neck
or other injuries.
The lap belt cannot do its job either. In a
crash the belt could go up over your
abdomen. The belt forces would be there,
not at your pelvic bones. This could cause
serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle is
in motion, have the seatback upright.
Then sit well back in the seat and wear
your safety belt properly.
Do not have a seatback reclined if your vehicle is
moving.
Your vehicle has a memory function which allows
seat settings to be saved and recalled. See
Memory Seat, Mirrors, and Pedals on page 12.
Head Restraints
Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the
restraint is at the same height as the top of
the occupant’s head. This position reduces the
chance of a neck injury in a crash.
15

Pull the head restraint
up to raise it. To lower
the head restraint,
press the release
button (A), located on
the top of the seatback,
while you push the
head restraint down.
The front seats may have head restraints that also
tilt forward and rearward.
To tilt the head restraint, grasp the top of the
restraint while pressing the button (B), located
on the inboard side of the head restraint,
and move it forward or rearward until the desired
locking position is reached. Try to move the
head restraint after the button is released to make
sure that it is locked in place.
The second row seats may have head restraints
that can be adjusted up and down, but they
do not tilt.Rear Seats
Rear Seat Operation
The rear seat is a 60/40 split bench seat that can
be folded to give you more cargo space and
access to the folding midgate. SeeMidgate
®on
page 104for more information on operation of the
folding midgate.
To fold either side of the seat do the following:
1. Push the rear seat head restraints all the
way down.
2. Pull the seat loop
located where the
seatback and seat
cushion meet. The
seat cushion will
release and allow
you to tilt it toward
the front of the
vehicle.
