FRONT SEATS
Manual Seat Adjustment
Forward/Rearward
• Lift up on the adjusting handle, lo-
cated at the front of the seat near the
floor, and release at the desired posi-
tion. Then, using body pressure, move
forward and backward on the seat to
be sure that the seat adjusters have
latched.
Recliner
• To recline the seatback, lift up the re-
cline lever, located on the inboard side
of the seat, lean back until the desired
position has been reached, and re-
lease the lever.
Seat Height
• The driver’s seat height can be raised
or lowered by using a lever, located
on the outboard side of the seat.
Pump the lever upward to raise the
seat height, or pump the lever down-
ward to lower the seat height.
EZ Entry Seats
• Pull up on the pull strap, located on
the side of the seatback, to dump the
seatback forward and slide the seat
forward. This allows for easier access
to the rear seat.
• The driver seat has a memory feature.
After using the EZ Entry function, the
seat back and adjuster will re-lock into
the original position the seat was pre-
viously adjusted to.
GETTING STARTED

SPORT MODE
• In Sport mode, the engine is more responsive to the throttle pedal, and provides
more power by increasing turbo boost.
• Steering feedback is also improved, and steering effort is slightly higher.
• Sport mode driving is useful while driving on winding roads where more steering
precision is desired.
To activate Sport Mode
• Press the SPORT button, located
above the climate controls.
• Momentarily release the accelerator
pedal.
• Press the accelerator pedal again to
activate.
NOTE:
• Once SPORT mode is activated, a
“SPORT” message will be displayed in
the instrument cluster.
• For maximum aerodynamics and han-
dling, your vehicle has a lowered ride
height. Use caution when entering steep driveways and parking spaces to pre-
vent damage.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
• Be sure the transmission is in first gear, not third, when starting from a standing
position. Damage to the clutch can result from starting in third gear.
• Never drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal, and never try to hold the
vehicle on a hill with the clutch pedal partially engaged. This will cause abnormal
wear on the clutch.
NOTE:
• Never shift into REVERSE until the vehicle has come to a complete stop.
• During cold weather, until the transmission lubricant is warm, you may experience
slightly higher shift efforts. This is normal and not harmful to the transmission.
