CAUTION
To reduce the risk of sliding under
the lap belt during a collision, avoid
reclining the seatback any more than
needed. The seat belts provide maxi-
mum protection in frontal or rear col-
lision when the driver and the pas-
senger are sitting up straight and
well back in the seats. If you are
reclined, the lap belt may slide past
your hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen. Therefore, in
the event of a frontal collision, the
risk of personal injury may increase
with increasing recline of the seat-
back.
3. SEAT LUMBAR SUPPORTADJUSTING SWITCH
Push the control switch on either way.
The amount of lumber support will change
as long as the switch is pushed. The micro computer can memorize the
position of the driver's seat and outside
rear view mirror. Two different driving
position profiles can be entered into
computer 's memory.
Recording a driving position in the
computer's memory can only be done
when the ignition key is in the ONº
position and the automatic transmission
selector lever is in the Pº position.
SETTING A DRIVING POSITION
1. Adjust the driver 's seat and outside rear view mirror to the desired posi-
tion.
2. While pushing the SETº button, push button 1º or 2º until the sig-
nal beeps.
The beep sound means that the positions
are recorded in the computer 's memory.
By repeating these two steps and pressing
the remaining button, the driving position
for another driver can be recorded.
To set a new memorized position, select
the desired position and perform step 2.
The previous memory will be erased and
the new position will be set.

Tilt steering wheel
To change the steering wheel angle,
hold the steering wheel, pull the lock
release lever toward you, tilt the steer-
ing wheel to the desired angle and re-
lease the lever.
When the steering wheel is in a low posi-
tion, it will spring up as you release the
lock release lever.
CAUTION

Do not adjust the steering wheel
while the vehicle is moving.

After adjusting the steering wheel,
try moving it up and down to make
sure it is locked in position.
Outside rear view mirrorsÐ
Adjust the mirror so that you can see
the side of your vehicle in the mirror.
Be careful when judging the size or dis-
tance of any object seen in the outside
rear view mirror on the passenger 's side.
It is a convex mirror with a curved sur-
face. Any object seen in a convex mirror
will look smaller and farther away than
when seen in a flat mirror.
On some models, when you push the rear
window defogger switch, the heater panels
in the outside rear view mirrors will quick-
ly clear the surface.
CAUTION

Do not adjust the mirror while the
vehicle is moving. It may cause the
driver to mishandle the vehicle and
an accident may occur resulting in
personal injuries.

Since the mirror surfaces can get
hot, keep your hands off them when
the defogger switch is on.
