Front Seats
Power Seat
Adjustment
{Warning
You can lose control of the
vehicle if you try to adjust a
driver seat while the vehicle
is moving. Adjust the driver
seat only when the vehicle is
not moving.
{Warning
The power seats will work
with the ignition off. Children
could operate the power
seats and be injured. Never
leave children alone in the
vehicle.
To adjust the seat:
.Move the seat forward or
rearward by sliding the
control forward or rearward.
.Raise or lower the front part
of the seat cushion by
moving the front of the
control up or down.
.Raise or lower the entire
seat by moving the rear of
the control up or down.
To adjust the seatback, see
Reclining Seatbacks 049.
To adjust the lumbar support,
see Lumbar Adjustment 050.
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.

68 Seats and Restraints
Adjust the height so that the
shoulder portion of the belt is
on the shoulder and not falling
off of it. The belt should be
close to, but not contacting,
the neck. Improper shoulder
belt height adjustment could
reduce the effectiveness of
the seat belt in a crash. See
How to Wear Seat Belts
Properly063.
Press and hold the release
button while raising or
lowering the height adjuster to
the desired position. After the height adjuster is set
to the desired position, try to
move it down without pressing
the release button to make
sure it has locked into position.
Automatic Seat Belt
Tightening System
The vehicle may have the
Automatic Seat Belt
Tightening System.
Each time the front seat belts
are buckled while the vehicle is
in P (Park) or D (Drive) and the
engine is running or in Auto
Stop (if equipped), the system
may activate to tighten the
seat belts.
The system also activates
during emergency braking
and/or sudden driving
maneuvers and releases when
driving conditions return to
normal.
The system will not activate if
the Traction Control/
Electronic Stability Control
system is not functioningproperly. See Traction
Control/Electronic Stability
Control
0276. If there is a
problem with the Automatic
Seat Belt Tightening System, a
message displays on the
Driver Information Center
(DIC). If a system unavailable
message displays repeatedly
or if a service message
displays, see your dealer.
Other seat belt functions are
not affected by the Automatic
Seat Belt Tightening System.
Seat Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle has seat belt
pretensioners for the front
outboard occupants. Although
the seat belt pretensioners
cannot be seen, they are part
of the seat belt assembly.
They can help tighten the seat
belts during the early stages
of a moderate to severe
frontal, near frontal, or rear
crash if the threshold
conditions for pretensioner
activation are met. Seat belt
