Seats and Restraints 3-3Rear Seats The vehicle's rear seats have
adjustable head restraints in the
outboard seating positions that can
be adjusted the same way as the
front head restraints.
Rear outboard head restraints are
not designed to be removed.
Active Head Restraints The vehicle has an active head
restraint system in the front seating
positions. These automatically tilt
forward to reduce the risk of neck
injury if the vehicle is hit from
behind. Front Seats Seat Adjustment

vehicle if you try to adjust a driver
seat while the vehicle is moving.

1. Lift the bar to unlock the seat. 2. Slide the seat to the desired
position and release the bar.

Seats and Restraints 3-134. If equipped with a shoulder belt
height adjuster, move it to the
height that is right for you. See
“ Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster ”
later in this section for
instructions on use and
important safety information.
5. To make the lap part tight, pull
up on the shoulder belt.
It may be necessary to pull the
stitching on the safety belt
through the latch plate to fully
tighten the lap belt on smaller
occupants. To unlatch the belt, push the button
on the buckle. The belt should
return to its stowed position. Slide
the latch plate up the safety belt
webbing when the safety belt is not
in use. The latch plate should rest
on the stitching on the safety belt,
near the guide loop on the side wall.
Before a door is closed, be sure the
safety belt is out of the way. If a
door is slammed against a safety
belt, damage can occur to both the
safety belt and the vehicle. Shoulder Belt Height Adjuster The vehicle has a shoulder belt
height adjuster for the driver and
right front passenger seating
positions.
Adjust the height so the shoulder
portion of the belt is on the shoulder
and not falling off of it. The belt
should be close to, but not
contacting, the neck. Improper
shoulder belt height adjustment
could reduce the effectiveness of
the safety belt in a crash. See How
to Wear Safety Belts Properly on
page 3 ‑ 11 .
