FRONT POWER SEAT ADJUSTMENT
Operating tips
●The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 seconds,
then reactivate the switch.
● Do not operate the power seat switch for a
long period of time when the engine is off.
This will discharge the battery.
See “Automatic drive positioner” in “Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” for automatic drive po-
sitioner operation.
Forward and backward
Moving the switch forward or backward will slide
the seat forward or backward to the desired
position.
Reclining
Move the recline switch backward until the de-
sired angle is obtained. To bring the seatback
forward again, move the switch forward and
move your body forward. The seatback will move
forward. The reclining feature allows adjustment of the
seatback for occupants of different sizes for
added comfort and to help obtain proper seat
belt fit. See “Precautions on seat belt usage” later
in this section. Also, the seatback can be reclined
to allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is
stopped and the shift selector is in P (Park) .

portion of the switch.
A chime will sound three times to indicate the
start of the operation.
A warning beep will sound 5 times if the seat isn’t
in the full upright or folded position when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position. If the
warning beep is still present after one complete
cycle and if the seats are in the full upright or
folded position, bring your vehicle in for service.If the ignition switch is off, the power folding
seats are always operational.
If the ignition switch is on, the power folding seats
are only operational when the shift selector is in P
(Park) or N (Neutral) .
If the engine is started during operation, the
seat(s) will temporarily pause.
NOTE:
Operating the power folding seats can dis-
charge the vehicle battery if the vehicle is
not running.
