Power Adjustment
WARNING
NEVER leave children unattended in the vehicle. Power seats operate when the engine is off.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the seats:
- Always stop adjusting the seat when it has been adjusted as far forward or rearward as possible.
- Do not operate the seats longer than necessary when the engine is off. This may cause unnecessary battery discharge.
- Do not operate two or more seats at the same time. This may cause an electrical malfunction.
Forward and Backward Adjustment

To move the seat forward or backward:
1. Press the control switch forward or backward.
2. Release the switch as soon as the seat reaches the desired position.
Seatback Angle

To recline a seatback:
1. Press the control switch forward or backward.
2. Release the switch as soon as the seatback reaches the desired position.
Reclining Seatback
Sitting in a reclined position while the vehicle is moving can be dangerous. Even when buckled up, the protection of your restraint system (seat belts and airbags) is significantly reduced by reclining the seatback.
WARNING
NEVER drive with the seatback reclined while the vehicle is moving.
Driving with the seatback reclined increases your chance of serious or fatal injury in the event of a collision or sudden stop.
The driver and passengers must ALWAYS sit comfortably in their seats, properly belted, with the seatbacks in the upright position.
The seat belts must fit snugly against the hips and chest to function properly. When the seatback is reclined, the shoulder belt cannot perform its function because it will not fit snugly against your chest. Instead, it will be positioned in front of you. In a collision, you may slide under the seat belt, resulting in neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined, the greater the chance that the passenger's hips will slide under the lap belt or the passenger's neck will strike the shoulder belt.

To change the angle of the front part of the cushion:

Release the switch as soon as the seat reaches the desired position.
Seat cushion height (2, driver's seat)
To change the seat cushion height:
Press the rear part of the control switch upward to raise, or downward to lower the seat cushion height.
Release the switch as soon as the seat reaches the desired position.
