amount of lumbar support. The lumbar control
knob is located on the rear upper outboard side of
the driver's seatback. Rotate the control forward to
increase and rearward to decrease the desired
amount of lumbar support.
Suspension Seat — If Equipped

180° position. To swivel the seat, pull the swivel
seat inboard lever outward, turn the seat to the
desired position and release the lever.
Swivel Seat Lever

If the vehicle is equipped with interlocking swivel
seats, the seats must be locked in the facing
forward position while driving. If the seats are not
in the correct position, a warning will appear in the
instrument cluster display.
If the driver or the passenger seats are not locked
in the facing forward position before the first
vehicle movement, shifting out of park is not
allowed until the seats are both locked in the
facing forward position. When the seats are not in
the right position and the first vehicle movement
after ignition START is attempted, a chime and a
message will appear in the instrument cluster
display. Rotate and lock the swivel seats in the
correct position before trying again.
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that
the shoulder belt is no longer resting against
your chest. In a collision, you could slide under
the seat belt and be seriously or even fatally
injured. Use the recliner only when the vehicle
is parked.

Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure
Use the following procedure to untwist a twisted
lap/shoulder belt.

1. Position the latch plate as close as possible to
the anchor point.

2. At about 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 cm) above the latch plate, grab and twist the seat belt
webbing 180 degrees to create a fold that
begins immediately above the latch plate.
3. Slide the latch plate upward over the folded webbing. The folded webbing must enter the
slot at the top of the latch plate.
4. Continue to slide the latch plate up until it clears the folded webbing and the seat belt is
no longer twisted.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage
In the driver and outboard front passenger seats,
the top of the shoulder belt can be adjusted
upward or downward to position the seat belt away
from your neck. Push or squeeze the anchorage
button to release the anchorage, and move it up or
down to the position that serves you best.
Adjustable Anchorage

As a guide, if you are shorter than average, you will
prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a lower
position, and if you are taller than average, you will
prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in a higher
position. After you release the anchorage button,
try to move it up or down to make sure that it is
locked in position.

Adjustable Anchorage

NOTE:
The adjustable upper shoulder belt anchorage is
equipped with an Easy Up feature. This feature
allows the shoulder belt anchorage to be adjusted in
the upward position without pushing or squeezing
the release button. To verify the shoulder belt
anchorage is latched, pull downward on the
shoulder belt anchorage until it is locked into
position.

WARNING!
Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could make
your injuries in a collision much worse. You
might suffer internal injuries, or you could
even slide out of the seat belt. Follow these
instructions to wear your seat belt safely and
to keep your passengers safe, too.
Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder
and chest with minimal, if any slack so that it
is comfortable and not resting on your neck.
The retractor will withdraw any slack in the
shoulder belt.
Misadjustment of the seat belt could reduce
the effectiveness of the safety belt in a crash.
Always make all seat belt height adjustments
when the vehicle is stationary.
