The recline lever is located on the outboard side of the seat. To recline the seat, lean forward slightly, lift the lever, lean back to the desired position and release the lever. To return the seatback to its normal upright position, lean forward and lift the lever. Release the lever once the seatback is in the upright position.
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.
