WARNING:
Never attempt to adjust the driver’s
seat or seatback while driving. The
seat or seatback could move unexpectedly,
causing loss of control.
Make sure that the driver’s seat and seatback are properly adjusted before you start driving.
WARNING:
To avoid excessive seat belt slack,
which reduces the effectiveness of
the seat belts as a safety device,
make sure that the seats are adjusted
before the seat belts are fastened.

The adjustment lever for each front seat is located under the front of the seat. To adjust the seat position, pull up on the adjustment lever and slide the seat forward or rearward. After adjustment, try to move the seat forward and rearward to ensure that it is securely latched.
