How to Use this Manual Many people read their owner’s manual from beginning to end when they first receive their new vehicle. If you do this, it will help you learn about the features and controls for your vehicle. In this manual, you’ll find that pictures and words work together to explain things quickly. Index A good place to look for what you need is the Index in back of the manual. It’s an alphabetical list of what’s in the manual, and the page number where you’ll find it.

Safety Warnings and Symbols You will find a number of safety cautions in this book. We use a box and the word CAUTION to tell you about things that could hurt you if you were to ignore the warning.

CAUTION:

These mean there is something that could hurt you or other people.

In the caution area, we tell you what the hazard is. Then we tell you what to do to help avoid or reduce the hazard. Please read these cautions. If you don’t, you or others could be hurt.

iii

yellowblue

You will also find a circle with a slash through it in this book. This safety symbol means “Don’t,” “Don’t do this” or “Don’t let this happen.”

In the notice area, we tell you about something that can damage your vehicle. Many times, this damage would not be covered by your warranty, and it could be costly. But the notice will tell you what to do to help avoid the damage. When you read other manuals, you might see CAUTION and NOTICE warnings in different colors or in different words. You’ll also see warning labels on your vehicle. They use the same words, CAUTION or NOTICE.

Vehicle Damage Warnings Also, in this book you will find these notices:

NOTICE:

These mean there is something that could damage your vehicle.

2-Way Front Seat

The bucket seats can be adjusted forward or rearward by the lever at the front of the seat.

Move the seat adjustment lever at the front of the seat toward the driver’s door to unlock it. Slide the seat to where you want it. Then release the lever and try to move the seat with your body, to make sure the seat is locked into place.

Seats and Seat Controls This section tells you about the seats -- how to adjust them, take them out and put them back in. It also tells you about bucket and bench seats, power seats and head restraints. Manual Front Seats

CAUTION:

You can lose control of the vehicle if you try to adjust a manual driver’s seat while the vehicle is moving. The sudden movement could startle and confuse you, or make you push a pedal when you don’t want to. Adjust the driver’s seat only when the vehicle is not moving.

1-2

Manual Lumbar Support (If Equipped)

yellowblue

Power Seats (If Equipped) If you have this feature, there will be a control pad on the inboard side of the driver and passenger bucket seats.

If you have this feature, there will be a knob on the inboard side of the driver and passenger bucket seats. Turn the knob toward the front of the vehicle to increase lumbar support. Turn the knob toward the rear of the vehicle to decrease lumbar support.

The front control makes the front of the seat go up and down. The center control makes the whole seat go forward, rearward, up or down. The rear control makes the rear of the seat go up and down.

1-3

yellowblue

But don’t have a seatback reclined if your vehicle is moving.

Reclining Seatbacks There is a lever on the inside of the seat to adjust the seatback.

You can adjust the seatback by lifting the lever and leaning back. Release the lever to lock the seatback where you want it. Pull up on the lever, lean forward and the seat will go to an upright position.

yellowblue

Head Restraints Head restraints are fixed on some models and adjustable on others. Slide an adjustable head restraint up or down so that the top of the restraint is closest to the top of your ears. This position reduces the chance of a neck injury in a crash. Seatback Latches (Non-Touring Bench Seats)

The seatback lever is on the right rear of your seat.

CAUTION:

Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicle is in motion can be dangerous. Even if you buckle up, your safety belts can’t do their job when you’re reclined like this. The shoulder belt can’t do its job because it won’t be against your body. Instead, it will be in front of you. In a crash you could go into it, receiving neck or other injuries. The lap belt can’t do its job either. In a crash the belt could go up over your abdomen. The belt forces would be there, not at your pelvic bones. This could cause serious internal injuries. For proper protection when the vehicle is in motion, have the seatback upright. Then sit well back in the seat and wear your safety belt properly.

1-5

To fold your non-touring bench seatback forward, pull up on the latch release lever while pulling the seatback toward the rear of the vehicle.

Rear Seats

Bucket Seats

yellowblue

After the latch has been released, push the seatback toward the front of the vehicle until it locks in place. To raise the seatback, unlock the seatback latch by pushing up on the lever while pushing down on the upper edge of the seatback. Move the seatback into the upright position. Make sure the seatback is locked when it is back in the upright position.

CAUTION:

If the seatback isn’t locked, it could move forward in a sudden stop or crash. That could cause injury to the person sitting there. Always press rearward on the seatback to be sure it is locked.

1-6

You may have rear bucket seats with an adjustment release bar at the front of the seats. These seats can be adjusted forward or rearward with the release bar. Pull the release bar up to release the seat bottom and slide the seat where you want it. Then let go of the release bar and try to move the seat with your body, to make sure the seat is locked into place.

yellowblue

Bench Seats If you have bench seats in your vehicle, each seat can carry up to three passengers. They can also be removed to increase storage space. The center bench and rear bench seats can be adjusted forward or rearward by the lever at the front of the seat.

Move the seat adjustment lever at the front of the seat toward the passenger’s side to unlock it. Slide the seat to where you want it. Then release the lever and try to move the seat with your body, to make sure the seat is locked into place.

The non-touring center bench seat has a pivoting right armrest. The left armrest can also be used as a storage compartment. The optional touring bench seats come with moveable armrests, individual reclining seatbacks, adjustable headrests and a fold-down center armrest console.

To adjust your seatback, pull up on the lever on the lower outside of the seat. The center bench seatbacks will recline further back than the rear bench seatbacks.

1-7

To raise or lower the center console, press the button between the beverage holders. Sit in the center seating position only when the console is in an upright and locked position.

Removing the Rear Seats To remove the rear seats, do the following:

yellowblue

1. If you are removing the center seat, remove the right lap-shoulder belt. To do this, press the tip of a key into the release hole of the safety belt attachment while pulling up on the safety belt.

For details about headrests, see “Head Restraints” in this section.

2. If you have a safety belt guide on your seat, pull the safety belt all the way out through the guide.

1. Lower the seat into position. Make sure the front

retainers are hooked onto the anchor pins.

6. Lift up on the rear of the seat to remove the seat

assembly from the rear latch pins. Then, pull back and lift the seat out of the vehicle. Your seat release latch lever is sprung with a two-stage mechanism. To fully release the latch, two levels of lift effort will be required. First, a low effort to overcome the first stage and then a moderate effort to fully release the latch.

3. To raise the seatback on vehicles equipped with the

non-touring seat, unlock the seatback latch by pushing up on the latch release lever at the right rear of the seat, while pushing down on the upper edge of the seatback. Move the seatback into the upright position. Make sure the seatback is locked when it is back in the upright position.

4. If you are replacing the center seat, connect the right

lap-shoulder belt to the attachment on the seat cushion. If you have a safety belt guide on your seat, pull the belt through the guide before reattaching the lap-shoulder belt to the side of the seat. The release hole should be facing outward. If you installed the safety belt with the release hole facing inward (toward the seat), slide the plastic cover up so you can see the buckle. Disconnect the seat belt. Slide the cover back down and reinstall the belt correctly.
