Seats

Note before adjusting

Do not adjust the seat while driving
Never attempt to adjust the driver's seat

while driving.
The seat could respond with unexpected move‐
ment and the ensuing loss of vehicle control
could lead to an accident.◀

Do not incline the backrest too far to the
rear

Do not incline the backrest on the front passen‐
ger side too far to the rear during driving. Oth‐
erwise, there is the danger of sliding under the
safety belt in an accident. This would eliminate
the protection normally provided by the belt.◀

Adjusting manually*

Forward/backward

Pull the lever and slide the seat into the desired
position. After releasing the lever, move the seat
forward or back slightly to make sure it engages
properly.

Thigh support*

Pull the lever and move the thigh support for‐
ward or back.
