Adjusting the front manual seats

WARNING: Never adjust the driver’s seat or seatback when the
vehicle is moving.

WARNING: Sitting improperly out of position or with the seat
back reclined too far can take off weight from the seat cushion

and affect the decision of the passenger sensing system, resulting in
serious injury or death in a crash. Always sit upright against your
seatback, with your feet on the floor.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of possible serious injury: Do not
hang objects off seat back or stow objects in map pocket (if

equipped) when a child is in the front passenger seat. Do not place
objects underneath the front passenger seat or between the seat and
the center console (if equipped). Check the “passenger airbag off” or
“pass airbag off” indicator lamp for proper airbag status. Refer to Front
passenger sensing system
chapter for additional details. Failure to
follow these instructions may interfere with the front passenger seat
sensing system.
