presets. The settings for these features can be

outside mirrors, and the radio station presets to your
preference.

of the memory control for three seconds. A double
chime will sound to let you know that the position
has been stored.

preceding steps, but press the other numbered
memory control button.
Each time button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while
the vehicle is in PARK (P), a single chime will sound and
the memory position will be recalled.
