SEAT ADJUSTMENT

Important adjustment information

Never try to adjust your seat while
operating the vehicle. The seat could

respond with an unexpected movement,
and the ensuing loss of vehicle control
could lead to an accident.
While driving, do not recline the backrest
too far toward the rear. This especially
applies to the front passenger side. If you
do so, there is a risk that you will slide
under the safety belt in an accident, thus
reducing the protection provided by the
safety belt.

Longitudinal adjustment

1. Lift the handle
2. Push the seat into the desired position
3. After releasing the handle, apply pres-

sure to the seat to ensure that the latch
engages securely.

Height adjustment

1. To raise:

Pull the handle up repeatedly, continu-
ing until the seat reaches the desired
height

2. To lower:

Push the handle repeatedly, continuing
until the seat reaches the desired height.
