To move a seat forward or backward, raise

the lever and slide the seat to the desired

position and release the lever.

Make sure the lever returns to its original

backward.

Seats

Securing the Seats:

Adjustable seats and seatbacks that

dangerous. In a sudden stop or

the seat forward and backward and

rocking the seatback.

Adjusting the driver’s seat while the

vehicle is moving is dangerous. The

driver could lose control of the vehicle

and have an accident. Adjust the

driver’s seat only when the vehicle is

stopped.
