Driver’s Seat Height Adjustment — If Equipped
The seat height control lever is located on the outboard side
of the seat. Raise the lever to raise the seat. Lower the lever
to lower the seat. The total seat travel is approximately 2.15
inches (55 mm).
Fold-Flat Front Passenger Seat — If Equipped
This feature allows for extended cargo space. When the
seat is folded flat, it is an extension of the load floor surface
(allowing long cargo to fit from the rear hatch up to the
instrument panel). The fold-flat seatback also has a hard-
back surface that you can use as a work surface when the
seat is folded flat and the vehicle is not in motion.
Pull upward on the recline lever to fold or unfold the seat.
