Section 2
MANUAL RECLINING CONTROL
(BUCKET SEATS ONLY)
To recline the seatback, lean
forward to remove your weight
from the seatback and pull the
lever all the way up. Then, lean
back and push against the
seatback to position it as desired.
Release the lever to lock the
seatback in place.
To bring the seatback to an
upright position, lift the lever and
do not rest against the back of the
seat.
Push and pull on the seatback to
check that it is locked into place.
CAUTION
If the seatback isn’t locked, it
could move forward in a
sudden stop or crash. You or
others may be injured. Always
press rearward on the seatback
to be sure it is locked in place.
CAUTION
Sitting in a reclined position
when your vehicle is in motion
can be dangerous. Even if you
buckle up, your safety belts
can't do their job when the
seatback is excessively reclined.
For proper protection when the
vehicle is in motion, have
the seatback in the upright
position.
Then, sit well back in the
seat and wear your safety belt
properly.
