Seat and Restraint System
Adjustment of Front Seat and
Rear Seat
Do not adjust the seat while the vehi-
cle is in motion. Otherwise, the vehi-
cle may lose control, which can cause a
collision and result in serious injury.
Only adjust the seat when the vehicle is sta-
tionary and before wearing the seat belt.
Improper adjustment of the seat belt may
cause serious injury.
Do not drive with the seat back flat. Other-
wise, the shoulder strap of the seat belt
cannot be restrained to the chest of the pas-
senger. The passenger may slide out from
the lower part of the seat belt and suffer
serious injuries during a collision.
Manual Driver Seat
The driver seat can be adjusted in six direc-
tions. The adjustment handle and adjust-
ment lever are located on the left side and
front side of the seat respectively. A lumbar
support adjustment handle is also provided
on the right side of the seat, which can
adjust the lumbar support forward and rear-
ward.

Reclining adjustment handle
When the seat back needs to be adjusted
rearward, lift the seat reclining adjustment
handle 2 up to unlock the seat back. Press
against the seat back rearward with your
back lightly to rotate the seat back rearward
to the desired position. Then, release the
reclining adjustment handle 2 to lock the
seat back.
When the seat back needs to be adjusted
forward, lift the seat reclining adjustment
handle 2 up to unlock the seat back. Move
your back away from the seat back slowly
until the seat back is rotated forward to the
desired position. Then, release the reclining
adjustment handle 2 to lock the seat back.
Do not recline the seat back more
than necessary when the vehicle is in
motion.
The seat belt is the most effective in a colli-
sion only when the driver and front passen-
ger are sitting up straight and well back in
the seats.
If you lean against the seat, the lap belt may
slide past the hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen or your neck may
contact the shoulder belt.
