Power Seats, Front
The switches are located in each front
door, if your vehicle is equipped with
front power seats.
Turn key in steering lock to position 1
or 2 (with the driver’s or front passen­
ger’s door open, the power seats can
also be operated with the key removed
or in steering lock position 0).
Seat and head restraint adjustment:
A Seat cushion adjustment.
B Seatback adjustment.
C Head restraint adjustment.
Adjust head restraint to support
the back of the head approxi­
mately at ear level. The head
restraint can also be tilted for­
ward by hand.
Note:
If the car is equipped with power
head restraints, do not try to
operate manually.
W arning!
Do not adjust the d river’s seat
while driving. Adjusting the seat
while driving could cause the
driver to lose control of the
vehicle.
Never ride in a moving vehicle
with the seat back reclined.
Sitting in an excessively reclined
position can be dangerous. You
could slide under the seat belt in
a collision. If you slide under it,
the belt would apply force at the
abdomen or neck. That could
cause serious or even fatal
injuries. The seat back and seat
belts provide the best restraint
when the wearer is in an upright
position and the belts are proper­
ly positioned on the body.
