Headlight Integration with Wipers
*1
When the headlights are in the AUTO position, they automatically turn on
when the front wipers operate several times within a certain interval. The
headlights turn off shortly after the wipers are turned off or if there is
enough ambient light.
n
Intermittent (INT) Wipers
When you move the lever to the INT
position, the wipers operate based on
the delay adjustment.
Rotate the adjustment ring to adjust the
wiper delay.
Adjusting the Front Seats
Adjust the driver’s seat as far back as
possible while allowing you to maintain
full control of the vehicle. You should be
able to sit upright and well back in the
seat, adequately press the pedals without
leaning forward, and grip the steering
wheel comfortably. The passenger’s seat
should be adjusted so that it is as far
back from the front airbag in the
dashboard as possible.
The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration and Transport Canada
recommends that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the center of
the steering wheel and the chest.

Front Manual Seat(s)
Sitting too close to a front airbag can result in serious injury or death if the
front airbags inflate.
Always sit as far back from the front airbags as possible while maintaining
control of the vehicle.
Adjusting the Head Restraints
Your vehicle is equipped with head
restraints in all seating positions. Head
restraints are most effective for protection
against whiplash and other rear-impact
crash injuries.
The center of the back of the occupant’s
head should rest against the center of the
restraint. The tops of the occupant’s ears
should be level with the center height of
the restraint.
For a head restraint system to work properly:
• Do not hang any items on the head restraints or from the restraint legs.
• Do not place any objects between an occupant and the seat-back.
