Manual Seat Adjuster

While sitting in the seat, pull up on the handle and slide the seat forward or backward. Release the bar once you have reached the desired position. Then, using body pressure, move forward and rearward on the seat to be sure that the seat adjusters have latched.

WARNING!

  • Adjusting a seat while driving may be dangerous.

    Moving a seat while driving could result in loss of control which could cause a collision and serious injury or death.

  • Seats should be adjusted before fastening the seat belts and while the vehicle is parked. Serious injury or death could result from a poorly adjusted seat belt.

Dump Feature (Manual Recline Seat Only) - Standard Cab

Actuating the recliner handle will allow the seatback to swing (dump) forward on manual recliner seats. This "dump" feature allows access to the storage bin behind the seat.

WARNING!

  • Do not stand or lean in front of the seat while actuating the handle. The seatback may swing forward and hit you causing injury.
  • To avoid injury, place your hand on the seatback and actuate the handle, then position the seatback in the desired position.

40-20-40 Front Bench Seat - If Equipped

The seat is divided into three segments. The outboard seat portions are each 40% of the total width of the seat.

On some models the back of the center portion (20%) easily folds down to provide an armrest/center storage compartment.

     Off-Road Driving Tips

    Care should be taken when attempting to climb steep hills or driving diagonally across a hill or slope. If natural obstacles force you to travel diagonally up or down a hill, choose a mild angle and keep as little side tilt as possible. Keep the vehicle moving and make turns slowly and cautiously.
