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.

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.

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.

Vehicle Symbols

Your vehicle may be equipped with components and

labels that use symbols instead of text. Symbols,

used on your vehicle, are shown along with the text

describing the operation or information relating to a

specific component, control, message, gage or indicator.

If you need help figuring out a specific name of a

component, gage or indicator reference the following

topics in the Index:

“Engine Compartment Overview”

“Instrument Panel”

“Comfort Controls”

“Audio Systems”

Also see “Warning Lights and Gages” in the Index.

These are some examples of vehicle symbols you may find on your vehicle:

Seats and Seat Controls

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

them, and fold them up and down. It also tells you about

reclining front seatbacks and head restraints.

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.

If your vehicle has a manual bucket or a split bench seat,

you can adjust it with this lever located at the front of

the seat.

Lift the lever to unlock the seat. Using your body, slide

the seat to where you want it, and release the lever. Try

to move the seat with your body to make sure the seat is

locked into place.

1-3

Manual Lumbar Control (If Equipped)

If your vehicle has a lumbar

adjustment, the knob is

located on the outboard side

of the seat cushion.

To increase or decrease support, turn the knob toward

the front or rear of the vehicle. Operating effort can

be reduced if you lean forward slightly while turning

the knob.

Power Seat(s) (If Equipped)

If your vehicle has a power seat, you can adjust it with

these controls located on the outboard sides of the seats.

Raise or lower the front of the seat cushion by

raising or lowering the forward edge of the

horizontal control.
