How to Use this Manual

Many people read their owner’s manual from beginning

to end when they first receive their new vehicle. If you

do this, it will help you learn about the features and

controls for your vehicle. In this manual, you’ll find

that pictures and words work together to explain

things quickly.

Index

A good place to look for what you need is the Index in

back of the manual. It’s an alphabetical list of what’s in

the manual, and the page number where you’ll find it.

Safety Warnings and Symbols

You will find a number of safety cautions in this book.

We use a box and the word CAUTION to tell you

about things that could hurt you if you were to ignore

the warning.

CAUTION:

These mean there is something that could hurt

you or other people.

In the caution area, we tell you what the hazard is. Then

we tell you what to do to help avoid or reduce the

hazard. Please read these cautions. If you don’t, you or

others could be hurt.

yellowblue

You will also find a circle

with a slash through it in

this book. This safety

symbol means “Don’t,”

“Don’t do this” or “Don’t

let this happen.”

Vehicle Damage Warnings

Also, in this book you will find these notices:

NOTICE:

These mean there is something that could

damage your vehicle.

In the notice area, we tell you about something that can

damage your vehicle. Many times, this damage would

not be covered by your warranty, and it could be costly.

But the notice will tell you what to do to help avoid

the damage.

When you read other manuals, you might see

CAUTION and NOTICE warnings in different colors or

in different words.

You’ll also see warning labels on your vehicle. They use

the same words, CAUTION or NOTICE.

Seats and Seat Controls

This section tells you about the seats -- how to adjust

them, and fold them up and down.

Manual Front Seat

CAUTION:

You can lose control of the vehicle if you try to

adjust a manual driver’s seat while the vehicle is

moving. The sudden movement could startle and

confuse you, or make you push a pedal when you

don’t want to. Adjust the driver’s seat only when

the vehicle is not moving. Pull up on the lever under the front of the manual seat to

unlock it. Slide the seat to where you want it. Then

release the lever and try to move the seat with your body

to make sure the seat is locked into place.

1-3

Manual Lumbar Support (If Equipped)

If you have this feature,

there will be a knob on the

outside of the driver and

passenger bucket seats.

Turn the knob toward the front of the vehicle to increase

lumbar support and toward the rear of the vehicle to

decrease lumbar support.

Reclining Seatbacks (Bucket Seats or

60/40 Bench)

To adjust the front seatback,

lift the lever on the outer

side of the seat.

Release the lever to lock the seatback where you

want it. Pull up on the lever and the seat will go to

an upright position.

yellowblue

1-4

But don’t have a seatback reclined if your vehicle

is moving.

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

you’re reclined like this.

The shoulder belt can’t do its job because it

won’t be against your body. Instead, it will be in

front of you. In a crash you could go into it,

receiving neck or other injuries.

The lap belt can’t do its job either. In a crash the

belt could go up over your abdomen. The belt

forces would be there, not at your pelvic bones.

This could cause serious internal injuries.

For proper protection when the vehicle is in

motion, have the seatback upright. Then sit

well back in the seat and wear your safety

belt properly.
