Four-Way Power Lumbar Control (If Equipped) If your vehicle has this feature, the driver's and passenger's seatback lumbar support controls are located on the outboard sides of the seats. Power Seats The power seat controls are located on the outboard sides of the front seat cushions. Use the power seat controls first to get the proper position, then continue with the lumbar adjustment.

Press the control up or down to raise or lower the support mechanism. Keep in mind that as your seating position changes, as it may during long trips, so should the position of your lumbar support. Adjust the seat as needed. Massaging Lumbar (If Equipped) This control is located on the outboard sides of the front seats. With the ignition on, briefly press the top of the control where it is marked AUTO to activate the massaging lumbar feature. Four-Way Rear Power Lumbar (If Equipped) Four-way lumbar support, without the massage feature, is also available for the outboard rear seating positions. If your vehicle has this feature, the rear lumbar support controls are located on the rear door trim panels. The massage cycle will run continuously for up to 10 minutes and can be interrupted by briefly pressing the bottom of the control. The lumbar support can be adjusted during the massage cycle by moving the control forward to increase support and rearward to decrease support. The massage cycle will continue to run even if the ignition is turned to OFF, unless interrupted. To activate the rear lumbar support feature, push forward on the control to increase support or rearward to decrease support. The lumbar control can also be moved up and down to adjust the location of the support. 1-3 Adaptive Seat Control (Option) The adaptive seat control is located on the outboard side of each front seat. It is marked AUTO. You may still wish to further adjust the overall firmness or softness of the seat cushion. To get to your desired level of comfort, hold the control up to increase the firmness, or down for less firmness. When you let go of the control, the seat will then automatically readjust to your desired level of comfort. To reshape the lower seatback, press the lumbar control forward to increase support and rearward to decrease support. The lumbar will then automatically adjust to your body's positioning for the duration of the trip in two to four-minute cycles. With the ignition in ON, first use the power seat control to get the proper position. Then press the top of the control where it is marked AUTO. The system will inflate the cushion and take a reading, then automatically deflate the cushion to a suggested level of comfort, by distributing the pressure evenly. The seatback and cushion will inflate to adjust to the driver's body positioning in two to four-minute cycles. If you exit the vehicle after the system has been activated and the seat is left unoccupied for more than two minutes, the system will deflate. You will then need to readjust the lumbar support upon returning to your vehicle. To turn off the adaptive seat feature, briefly press the bottom of the control. The seat will deflate when the adaptive seat control or the ignition is turned off. If your vehicle has this option, the massaging lumbar feature is not available for your vehicle. 1-4 Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering Wheel (If Equipped) The controls for these features are located on the driver's door panel, and are used to program and recall memory settings for the driver's seating positions. 3. Within five seconds, press button 1. A single beep will sound through the driver's side front speaker to let you know that the position has been stored. A second mirror, seating and steering wheel position can be programmed by repeating the above steps and pressing button 2 (for driver 2). Each time a memory button is pressed, a single beep will sound. Each time button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while the vehicle is in PARK (P), the memory positions will be recalled. If the vehicle is not in PARK (P), the memory buttons must be pressed and held to recall the stored positions. If you use the remote keyless entry transmitter to enter your vehicle, automatic seat and mirror movement will occur. The numbers on the back of the transmitters, 1 and 2, correspond to the numbers on the buttons on the door panel. When the key is placed in the ignition in OFF if you have entered the vehicle without using the remote keyless entry transmitter, the seats and mirrors will automatically adjust to the programmed position of the last driver. To stop recall movement of the memory feature at any time, press one of the power seat controls or memory buttons. Use the following steps to program each button: 1. Adjust the driver's seat (including the seatback recliner, lumbar, head restraint and shoulder belt height adjustments), both outside mirrors and the steering wheel to a comfortable position. 2. Press the SET button. 1-5 Two personalized exit positions can be set by first recalling the driving position (by pressing 1 or 2), then positioning the steering wheel and seat in the desired exit positions and then pressing and releasing the MEMORY SET button and, within five seconds, pressing the EXIT button.

The temperature can be adjusted by pushing the button from HI to LO or, until the desired setting is reached. You will be able to feel heat in approximately two minutes.

Even if you buckle up, your safety belts can't do their job when you're reclined like this. The shoulder belt can't do its job. In a crash you could go into it, receiving neck or other injuries. The lap belt can't 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.
