Lumbar support (For driver’s
seat, if equipped)

You can adjust the lumbar support by
moving the lever on the side of the driv-
er’s seatback.
Pivoting the lever toward the front of the
vehicle increases the lumbar support.
Pivoting the lever toward the rear of the
vehicle decreases the lumbar support.

Warming the front seats
(if equipped)

The front seats can be electrically heated
individually when the ignition switch is
ON. When you depress the seat warmer
switch, a thermostat regulates seat tem-
perature. To deactivate the heating sys-
tem, depress the switch once again.

NOTICE

• The seat warmer will not operate if

ambient temperature is above 37±3°C
(98.5±5.5°F).

• If the seat warmer doesn't work when

the ambient temperature is below
28±3°C (82.5±5.5°F), have the system
checked by an authorized dealer.

WARNING

- Driver respon-

sibility for front seat pas-
senger

Driving or riding in a vehicle with a
front seatback reclined could lead
to serious or fatal injury in an acci-
dent. If a front seat is reclined dur-
ing an accident, the occupant’s hips
may slide under the lap portion of
the safety belt applying great force
to the unprotected abdomen or
neck or a passenger may be ejected
in a rollover. Serious or fatal inter-
nal injuries could result. The driver
must advise the front passenger to
keep the seatbacks in comfortably
upright position whenever the vehi-
cle is in motion.
