head restraints in the outboard seating
positions.

the restraint is at the same height as the
top of the occupant's head. This position
reduces the chance of a neck injury in a
crash.
To raise or lower the head restraint, press
the button located on the side of the head
restraint, and pull up or push the head
restraint down, and release the button. Pull
and push on the head restraint after the
button is released to make sure that it is
locked in place.
The front outboard head restraints are not
removable.
Front Seats

2. Move the seat forward or rearward and release the handle. 3. Try to move the seat back and forth to
be sure it is locked in place.

36 Seats and Restraints
.Raise or lower the front part of the seat
cushion by moving the front of the
horizontal control up or down.
.Raise or lower the entire seat by moving
the entire horizontal control up or down.
Reclining Seatbacks
{Warning
Sitting in a reclined position when the
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous.
Even when buckled up, the seat belts
cannot do their job.
The shoulder belt will not be against
your body. Instead, it will be in front of
you. In a crash, you could go into it,
receiving neck or other injuries.
The lap belt could go up over your
abdomen. The belt forces would be there,
not at your pelvic bones. This could cause
serious internal injuries.
For proper protection when the vehicle is
in motion, have the seatback upright.
Then sit well back in the seat and wear
the seat belt properly.
Do not have a seatback reclined if the
vehicle is moving.
To adjust the seatback:
.Tilt the top of the control rearward to
recline.
.Tilt the top of the control forward to
raise.
Memory Seats
If equipped, memory seats allow two drivers
to save and recall their unique seat positions
for driving the vehicle, and a shared exit
position for getting out of the vehicle. Other
feature positions may also be saved, such as
power mirrors and power steering wheel,
if equipped. Memory positions are linked to
RKE transmitter 1 or 2 for automatic
memory recalls.
