WARNING: To minimize the risk of neck injury in the event of a
crash, head restraints must be installed properly.

Adjusting the front power seat

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

WARNING: Do not pile cargo higher than the seatbacks to
reduce the risk of injury in a collision or sudden stop.

WARNING: Always drive and ride with your seatback upright
and the lap belt snug and low across the hips.

WARNING: Reclining the seatback can cause an occupant to
slide under the seat’s safety belt, resulting in severe personal

injuries in the event of a collision.

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 front 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 the seatback 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 in the Airbag supplemental
restraint system (SRS)
section for additional details. Failure to follow
these instructions may interfere with the front passenger seat sensing
system.

The control is located on the outboard side of the seat cushion.
