SEATING

Adjusting the front manual seat

Never adjust the driver’s seat or seatback when the vehicle is
moving.

Do not pile cargo higher than the seatbacks to reduce the risk of
injuring people in a collision or sudden stop.

Always drive and ride with your seatback upright and the lap
belt snug and low across the hips.

Reclining the seatback can reduce the effectiveness of the seat’s
safety belt in the event of a collision.

Lift handle to move seat forward or
backward.

Pull lever up to adjust seatback.

Seating and safety restraints
