Safety Precautions
Adjusting the seats so that you are sitting
in a safe, comfortable position plays an
important role in driver and passenger
safety together with the seat belts and air
bags in an accident.
Air bags
You can take steps to reduce the risk of
being injured by an inflating air bag.
Sitting too close to an air bag greatly
increases the risk of injury in the event
the air bag inflates.
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) recommends
that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25
cm) between the center of the steering
wheel and their chest.
Seat belts
Always fasten your seat belt before start-
ing any trip.
At all times, passengers should sit
upright and be properly restrained.
Infants and small children must be
restrained in appropriate child restraint
systems. Adults and children who have
outgrown a booster seat must be
restrained using the seat belts.
Do not use a cushion that reduces
friction between the seat and the
passenger. The passenger's hips
may slide under the lap portion of
the seat belt during an accident or
a sudden stop. Serious or fatal
internal injuries could result
because the seat belt cannot oper-
ate properly.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury
or death from an inflating air bag,
take the following precautions:
•Adjust the driver's seat as far to
the rear as possible while main-
taining the ability to maintain full
control of the vehicle.
Adjust the front passenger seat
as far to the rear as possible.
Hold the steering wheel by the
rim with hands at the 9 o'clock
and 3 o'clock positions to mini-
mize the risk of injuries to your
hands and arms.
NEVER place anything or anyone
between the steering wheel and
the air bag.
Do not allow the front passenger
to place feet or legs on the dash-
board to minimize the risk of leg
injuries.
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat belt:
NEVER use one seat belt for
more than one occupant.
Always position the seatback
upright with the lap portion of the
seat belt snug and low across the
hips.
NEVER allow children or small
infants to ride in a passenger's
lap.
Do not route the seat belt across
your neck, across sharp edges,
or reroute the shoulder strap
away from your body.
Do not allow the seat belt to
become caught or jammed.

Front Seats
Manual adjustment (if equipped)
The front seat can be adjusted by using
the levers located on the outside of the
seat cushion. Before driving, adjust the
seat to the proper position so that you
can easily control the steering wheel,
foot pedals and controls on the instru-
ment panel.
Forward and rearward adjustment
To move the seat forward or rearward:
1. Pull up the seat slide adjustment leverand hold it.
2. Slide the seat to the position you desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seat is locked in place. Move forward
and rearward without using the lever. If
the seat moves, it is not locked properly.
Take the following precautions
when adjusting your seat:
NEVER attempt to adjust the seat
while the vehicle is moving. The
seat could respond with unex-
pected movement and may cause
loss of vehicle control resulting
in an accident.
Do not place anything under the
front seats. Loose objects in the
driver's foot area could interfere
with the operation of the foot
pedals, causing an accident.
Do not allow anything to interfere
with the normal position and
proper locking of the seatback.
Do not place a cigarette lighter on
the floor or seat. When you oper-
ate the seat, gas may exit out of
the lighter causing a fire.
Use extreme caution when pick-
ing small objects trapped under
the seats or between the seat and
the center console. Your hands
might be cut or injured by the
sharp edges of the seat mecha-
nism.
WARNING To prevent injury:
Do not adjust your seat while
wearing your seat belt. Moving
the seat cushion forward may
cause strong pressure on your
abdomen.
Do not allow your hands or fin-
gers to get caught in the seat
mechanisms while the seat is
moving.

Seatback angle
To recline the seatback:
1. Lean forward slightly and lift up theseatback lever.
2. Carefully lean back on the seat and adjust the seatback to the position you
desire.
3. Release the lever and make sure the seatback is locked in place. (The lever
MUST return to its original position for
the seatback to lock.) Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.
Even when buckled up, the protection of
your restraint system (seat belts and air
bags) is greatly reduced by reclining your
seatback.
Seat belts must be snug against your
hips and chest to work properly. When
the seatback is reclined, the shoulder
belt cannot do its job because it will not
be snug against your chest. Instead, it
will be in front of you. During an accident,
you could be thrown into the seat belt,
causing neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined, the
greater chance the passenger's hips will
slide under the lap belt or the passen-
ger's neck will strike the shoulder belt.
Seat cushion height
To change the height of the seat cushion:
Push down on the lever several times,
to lower the seat cushion.
Pull up on the lever several times, to raise the seat cushion.
OAD035003OAD035004
NEVER ride with a reclined seat-
back when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback
increases your chance of serious
or fatal injuries in the event of a col-
lision or sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should
ALWAYS sit well back in their seats,
properly belted, and with the seat-
backs upright.

4. Fold the seatback toward the front ofthe vehicle.
5. To use the rear seat, lift and unfold the seatback to the upright position. Push
the seatback firmly until it clicks into
place. Make sure the seatback is
locked in place.
When you return the seatback to its upright position, always be sure it has
locked into position by pushing on the
top of the seatback.
OAD035022
Do not place objects in the rear
seats, since they cannot be proper-
ly secured and may hit vehicle
occupants in a collision causing
serious injury or death.
WARNING
When returning the rear seatback
from a folded to an upright posi-
tion, hold the seatback and return it
slowly. Ensure that the seatback is
completely locked into its upright
position by pushing on the top of
the seatback. In an accident or sud-
den stop, the unlocked seatback
could allow cargo to move forward
with great force and enter the pas-
senger compartment, which could
result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
Make sure the engine is off, the
shift lever is in P (Park), and the
parking brake is securely applied
whenever loading or unloading
cargo. Failure to take these steps
may allow the vehicle to move if the
shift lever is inadvertently moved to
another position.

the top of the eyes.
NEVER adjust the head restraint
position of the driver's seat when
the vehicle is in motion.

to the passenger's head as possi-
ble. Do not use a seat cushion
that holds the body away from
the seatback.
Make sure the head restraint
locks into position after adjusting
it.
