AUTOMATIC SEAT POSITIONER
OPERATIONThis system is designed so that the driver's
seat will automatically move when the auto-
matic transmission selector lever is in the P
(Park) position. This allows the driver to get
into and out of the driver's seat more easily.
When one of the following conditions is met,
the driver's seat will slide backward:
IWhen the key is removed from the ignition
switch.
IWhen the driver's door is opened with the
key turned to ACC or LOCK.
IWhen the key is turned from ON to LOCK
with the driver's door open.
When one of the following conditions is met,
the driver's seat will return to the positions
before being set.
IWhen the key is inserted into the ignition
switch.
IWhen the driver's door is closed with the
key turned to ACC or LOCK.
IWhen the key is turned to ON.Procedure for storing memoryTwo positions can be stored in the automaticdrive positioner memory.Follow these proce-
dures to use the memory system.
1. Set the automatic transmission selector le-
ver to the P (Park) position.
2. Turn the ignition ON.
3. Adjust the driver's seat and steering column
to the desired positions by manually oper-
ating each adjusting switch. For additional
information, see ªSeatsº in the ª1. Seats,
restraints and supplemental air bag sys-
temsº section and ªSteering wheelº earlier
in this section.
During this step, do not turn the ignition to

push the memory switch 1 or 2 fully for at
least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch.

lected positions are stored in the selected
memory (1 or 2).
If memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be de-
leted.
Confirming memory storageITurn the ignition ON and push the SET
switch. If the main memory has not been
stored, the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 seconds. When the
memory has stored the position, the indica-
tor light will stay on for approximately 5
seconds.
IIf the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse blows, the memory will be canceled. In
such a case, reset the desired positions
using the following procedures.
1. Open and close the driver's door more thantwo times with the ignition key in the LOCK
position.

Turn the ignition key to ACC or ON and press
the power on switch to turn on the radio. If you
listen to the radio with the engine not running,
the key should be turned to the ACC position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external
influences. Intermittent changes in reception
quality normally are caused by these external
influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the ve-
hicle may influence radio reception quality.Radio receptionYour radio system is equipped with state-of-
the-art electronic circuits to enhance radio
reception. These circuits are designed to ex-
tend reception range, and to enhance the
quality of that reception.
However there are some general characteris-
tics of both FM and AM radio signals that can
affect radio reception quality in a moving ve-
hicle, even when the finest equipment is used.
These characteristics are completely normal in
a given reception area, and do not indicate any
malfunction in your radio system.
Remember that a moving vehicle is not the
ideal place to listen to a radio. Because of the
movement, reception conditions will constantlychange. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and
interference from other vehicles can work
against ideal reception. Described below are
some of the factors that can affect your radio
reception.
FM RADIO RECEPTIONRange: FM range is normally limited to 25 to
30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural (single
channel) FM having slightly more range than
stereo FM. External influences may some-
times interfere with FM station reception even
if the FM station is within 25 miles (40 km). The
strength of the FM signal is directly related to
the distance between the transmitter and re-
ceiver. FM signals follow a line-of-sight path,
exhibiting many of the same characteristics as
light. For example they will reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away

FM-AM RADIO WITH CASSETTE
PLAYER AND COMPACT DISC
(CD) PLAYER
Audio main operationHead unit
The tape deck employs a permalloy head
which allows for improved reproduction of high
frequency ranges. Noise is also greatly re-
duced by the combined use of the Dolby NR
(Noise Reduction) system. The auto loudness
circuit enhances the low frequency range au-
tomatically in tape and CD playback.
Power/Volume control:
Turn the ignition key to ACC or ON, and then
push the Power/Volume control dial while the
system is off to call up the mode (radio, tape or
CD) which was playing immediately before the
system was turned off. When no CD or tape is
loaded, the radio will come on. While the
system is on, pushing the Power/Volume con-
trol dial turns the system off.
To turn the radio off, press the Power/Volume
control dial.
Turn the Power/Volume control dial to adjust
the volume.
