Seats & Safety System

Manual adjustment
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 
instrument panel.

1.
 Lean f
orward slightly and lift up the 
seatback lever.

 Care
fully lean back on the seat and

Reclining seatback
Sitting in a reclined position when the 
vehicle is in motion can be dangerous. 
Even when buckled up, the protections 
of your restraint system (seat belts 
and/or air bags) is greatly reduced by 
reclining your seatback.
 WARNING
NEVER ride with a reclined seatback 
when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback 
increases your chance of serious or fatal 
injuries in the event of a collision or 
sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should ALWAYS 
sit well back in their seats, properly 
belted, and with the seatbacks upright.

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 
passenger’s neck will strike the shoulder 
belt.

Seat cushion height
To change the height of the seat cushion:
•	Push down the lever several times, to 
lower the seat cushion.
•	 Pull up the lever several times, to raise 
the seat cushion.
Power adjustment (if equipped)
The front seat can be adjusted by using 
the control switches 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 instrument panel.
 WARNING
NEVER allow children in the vehicle 
unattended. The power seats are 
operable when the vehicle is turned off.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the seats:
•	Always stop adjusting the seats when 
the seat has been adjusted as far 
forward or rearward as possible.
•	 Do not adjust the seats longer than 
necessary when the vehicle is turned 
off. This may result in unnecessary 
battery drain.
•	 Do not operate two or more seats at 
the same time. This may result in an 
electrical malfunction.

Lane  Keeping Assist
•	To warn the driver that the vehicle 
is departing from the projected lane 
in front, the green 
 indicator 
light will blink on the cluster, and the 
steering wheel will make adjustments 
to keep the vehicle inside the lane.
•	 The system will operate when 
your vehicle speed is between 
approximately 40~120 mph (60~200 
km/h).

Hands-off warning
If the driver takes their hands off the 
steering wheel for several seconds, the 
‘Place hands on the steering wheel’ (or 
‘Keep hands on the steering wheel’) 
warning message will appear on the 
cluster, and an audible warning will 
sound in stages.
 WARNING
•	The steering wheel may not be 
assisted if the steering wheel is held 
very tight or the steering wheel is 
steered over a certain degree.
•	 Lane Keeping Assist does not operate 
at all times. It is the responsibility of 
the driver to safely steer the vehicle 
and to maintain the vehicle in its 
lane. 
•	 The hands–off warning message 
may appear late depending on road 
conditions. Always have your hands 
on the steering wheel while driving.
•	 If the steering wheel is held very 
lightly, the hands–off warning 
message may appear because the 
system may not recognize that the 
driver has their hands on the steering 
wheel.
•	 If you attach objects to the steering 
wheel, the hands-off warning may 
not work properly.
