Front seat adjustment - power
(if equipped)
The front seat can be adjusted by
using the control switch located on
the outside of the seat cushion.
Before driving, adjust the seat to the
proper position so as to easily con-
trol the steering wheel, pedals and
switches on the instrument panel.
When in operation, the power seat
consumes a large amount of electri-
cal power. To prevent unnecessary
charging system drain, don’t adjust
the power seat longer than neces-
sary while the engine is not running.
Forward and backward
Push the control switch forward or
backward to move the seat to the
desired position. Release the switch
once the seat reaches the desired
position.

steering wheel before you drive. You
can also raise it to give your legs
more room when you exit and enter

see the instrument panel warning

the desired position before driving.
