qLumbar Support Adjustment
The amount of lumbar support can be
adjusted by pressing the switch.
To increase the seat firmness, press and
hold the front part of the switch to the
desired position, then release it.

decrease firmness.
qFolding the Seat
WARNING
Never lower a front seatback while an
occupant is seated in the seat, even if
the vehicle is stopped:
Lowering a front seatback while an
occupant is seated in the seat is
dangerous because the seatback
folds down suddenly when operated
which could cause an injury.
Because your vehicle has free-style doors
(page 3-30), the rear door cannot be
opened while the front door is closed. To
exit the rear seating area, fold the front
seatback forward using the following
procedure and open the front door first.
Seatback folding
Press and hold the upper part of the
switch while the vehicle is stopped to
slide the seat forward and fold the
seatback forward.
To return the seatback to its on-road
position
Press and hold the lower part of the switch
while the vehicle is stopped to slide the
seat rearward and raise the seatback.
NOTE
The operation cancels in the following cases:
l A seat adjustment switch other than a
lumbar support switch is operated.
l The set button is operated.
l Any programming button
―
is
pressed.
l The vehicle moves or starts to move.
