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

Adjusting the front manual seat

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.

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.

Pull the lever located under the
front edge of the seat to move the
seat forward or backward.
