Seat Slide
(Manually operated seats)

backward.

Securing the Seats:
Adjustable seats and seatbacks that
are not securely locked are
dangerous. In a sudden stop or
collision, the seat or seatback could
move, causing injury. Make sure the
adjustable components of the seat are
locked in place by attempting to slide
the seat forward and backward and
rocking the seatback.
•
The seat-bottom power adjust is
operated by a motor. Avoid
extended operation because
excessive use can damage the
motor.
•
To prevent the battery from running
down, avoid using the power adjust
when the engine is stopped. The
adjuster uses a great amount of
electric power.
•
Don’t use the switch to make more
than one adjustment at a time.
WARNING
CAUTION
Driver’s Seat Adjustment:
Adjusting the driver’s seat while the
vehicle is moving is dangerous. The
driver could lose control of the vehicle
and have an accident. Adjust the
driver’s seat only when the vehicle is
stopped.
