Automatic adjustment
(for driver’s seat) (if equipped)
The driver’s seat can be adjusted by
using the control knob located on the
outside of the seat cushion. Before
driving, adjust the seat to the proper
position so as to easily control the
steering wheel, pedals and switches
on the instrument panel.
Forward and backward
1. Push the control switch forward or
backward to move the seat to the
desired position.
2. Release the switch once the seat
reaches the desired position.
WARNING
The power seat is operable with
the ignition OFF.
Therefore, children should never
be left unattended in the car.
CAUTION
The power seat is driven by an
electric motor. Stop operating
once the adjustment is com-
pleted. Excessive operation
may damage the electrical
equipment.
When in operation, the power
seat consumes a large amount
of electrical power. To prevent
unnecessary charging system
drain, don’t adjust the power
seat longer than necessary
while the engine is not running.
Do not operate two or more
power seat control knobs at the
same time. Doing so may result
in power seat motor or electri-
cal component malfunction.
