WARNING
.Do not ride in a moving vehicle
when the seatback is reclined.
This can be dangerous. The
shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and re-
ceive neck or other serious inju-
ries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious
internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit well back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Precautions on seat belt usage”
(P.1-20).
. After adjustment, gently rock in
the seat to make sure it is se-
curely locked.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could
unknowingly activate switches
or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious
accidents. .
To help avoid risk of injury or
death through unintended opera-
tion of the vehicle and/or its
systems, do not leave children,
people who require the assis-
tance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature in-
side a closed vehicle on a warm
day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk
of injury or death to people and
pets.
. The seatback should not be re-
clined any more than needed for
comfort. Seat belts are most ef-
fective when the passenger sits
well back and straight up in the
seat. If the seatback is reclined,
the risk of sliding under the lap
belt and being injured is in-
creased.

FRONT SEATS
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” (P.3-40)
for the seat position memory function.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions,
be sure not to contact any moving
parts to avoid possible injuries and/
or damages.
SSS1051
Forward and backward:
Moving the switch
forward or back-
ward will slide the seat forward or back-
ward to the desired position.
Reclining:
Move the recline switch
backward until
the desired angle is obtained. To bring the
seatback forward again, move the switch
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 “Precau-
tions on seat belt usage” (P.1-20).) Also,
the seatback can be reclined to allow occupants to rest when the vehicle is
stopped and the transmission is in the P
(Park) position.

SSS1052
Seat lifter:
1. Pull up or push down the adjustingswitch to adjust the seat height until
the desired position is achieved.
2. Tilt up or down the adjusting switch to adjust the front angle of the seat until
the desired position is achieved (for
driver’s seat).
SSS1053
Lumbar support:
The lumbar support feature provides low-
er back support to the occupants.
Push the front or back end of the switch
to adjust the seatback lumbar area.
2ND ROW SEATS
WARNING
.Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the rear seat
when it is in the fold-down posi-
tion. Use of these areas by pas-
sengers without proper restraints
could result in serious injury in an
accident or sudden stop.
. When returning the seatbacks to
the upright position, be certain
they are completely secured in
the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
. Properly secure all cargo to help
prevent it from sliding or shifting.
Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo
could cause personal injury.

(See “Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-
20).) The seatback may also be reclined to
allow occupants to rest when the vehicle
is parked.
WARNING
. Do not ride in a moving vehicle
when the seatback is reclined.
This can be dangerous. The
shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and re-
ceive neck or other serious inju-
ries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious
internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit
well back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor and adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Precautions on seat belt usage”
(P.1-20).
. After adjustment, check to be
sure the seat is securely locked.
Entry to 3rd row seat
CAUTION
.Do not drive with the 2nd row
seat tipped up.
. Be careful not to allow the 2nd
row seat to pinch, hit any part of
your body or other people when
operating the 2nd row seat. Make
sure the seat path is clear of all
objects before moving the seat.
The 2nd row seat can be tipped forward
for easy entry to or exit from the 3rd row
seat.
