Adjusting the power* front seats
The front seats can be adjusted in a number
of different ways to help enhance your seat-
ing comfort. The power seat can be moved
forward/backward and up/down. The height
and length* of the seat cushion and the tilt of
the backrest can be adjusted. Lumbar sup-
port* can be adjusted up, down, forward and
backward3.
The seats can be adjusted when the engine is
running and for a certain period of time after
the door has been unlocked without the

a short period after the engine is turned off.

any object. If this occurs, remove the
object and attempt to adjust the seat
again.

four-way lumbar support*. Vehicles with two-way
lumbar support* do not have the rotary multifunction
control.
In vehicles with four-way lumbar support*,
