Keys, Doors, and Windows 21
Power Door Locks
Power Door Lock (Central
Door Lock)
How the Power Door Lock System
Operates
When you lock the driver's door
using the key or by operating the
lock button, the power door lock
system will automatically lock all
doors simultaneously.
Door Lock Switch
Both doors can be locked and
unlocked by pressing the power
door lock switch.
Vehicle Security
Guard Against Theft
Your new vehicle has many features
to help prevent theft of the vehicle,
its equipment and contents. But
these anti-theft features depend
upon you to work.
The time to be most on guard is
when leaving the vehicle:
.Park in a lighted spot when
you can.
. Turn the engine control switch to
"LOCK" and remove the key.
This locks the switch and the
steering controls. The selector
lever is not locked.
. Keep items that may appear to
be of value out of sight and
locked up when possible.
. Fully close all windows and lock
all doors.
Exterior Mirrors
Mirrors
Sit in the correct driving position
with the seat adjusted properly.
Then, check each mirror to ensure
that a proper view of the rear and
sides of the vehicle are provided.
Make adjustments and clean mirrors
if necessary.
Outside Rearview Mirrors
After properly adjusting your seat for
proper driving position, adjust the
mirrors so that they provide
adequate views for checking the
rear and the sides of the vehicle.
Adjust the outside rearview mirrors
by hand before vehicle operation.
This helps you determine the
location of objects seen in the
mirror. If the outside mirror fogs up,
warm up the outside rearview
mirror's face to defog.
See Heated Mirrors 022.

28 Seats and Restraints
{Warning
Make sure not to hit passengers
or luggage when adjusting your
seat. You and others could be
seriously injured.
{Warning
When adjusting the seat, or when
getting up from the seat, do not
put your hand or other objects
under the seat or near moving
parts. Doing so could cause injury
or damage to objects.
Driver’s Seat
The driver's seat must be adjusted
so that when you sit well back in the
seat, you can fully press the pedals
without moving your back from the
seatback, and you can operate the
steering wheel easily and freely.
After making adjustments, check
that the seat is completely locked. Adjusting the seat for a correct
driving posture is a fundamental
part of safe driving.
Forward/backward Adjustment
While raising the unlock lever, move
the seat forward or backward.
Release the lever when the seat is
in the desired position. After making
adjustments, try to move the seat
back and forth to check that it is
fully locked.
Reclining Adjustment
{Warning
To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap belt during a collision, an
occupied reclining seat should not
be reclined any more than
needed for comfort. The seatback
and seat belts provide best
restraint only when the rider is
sitting well back and straight up in
the seat. (The lap belt is designed
to spread the force of a collision
over the hipbone. If you are
reclined, the lap belt may slide
past your hips and apply restraint
forces directly to the abdomen.
Therefore, in the event of a
collision, the risk of personal
injury will increase with increasing
recline of the seatback). You and
others could be seriously injured.
