Power Reclining Seatbacks

Driver’s Seat with Power Seat Control, Power
Recline, and Power Lumbar shown
If the seats have power reclining seatbacks, the controls used to operate them are located on the outboard side of the seats.
• Tilt the top of the control rearward to recline the seatback.
• Tilt the top of the control forward to raise the seatback.

WARNING:
Sitting in a reclined position when your vehicle is
in motion can be dangerous. Even if you buckle
up, your safety belts cannot do their job when you
are reclined like this.
The shoulder belt cannot do its job. In a crash,
you could go into it, receiving neck or other
injuries.
The lap belt cannot 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.
Do not have the seatback reclined if your vehicle is moving.
