Memory Seat
If your vehicle has this
feature, then the controls
for the memory function
are located on the driver's
door.
These buttons are used to program and recall memory
settings for the driver's seat, both the driver's and
passenger's outside mirror, and the radio station
presets. The settings for these features can be
personalized for both driver 1 and driver 2. Driver 1 or
driver 2 corresponds to the memory buttons labeled
1and 2 on the driver's door.To store your memory seat, mirrors and radio presets,
do the following:
1. Adjust the driver's seat (including the seatback
recliner, lumbar, and side wing area), both of the
outside mirrors, and the radio station presets to your
preference.
2. Press and hold the 1 or 2 (for driver 1or 2) button
of the memory control for three seconds. A double
chime will sound to let you know that the position
has been stored.
To repeat the procedure for a second driver, follow the
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.
If you use the unlock button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter to enter your vehicle, the preset driver's
seat, mirror positions and the radio station presets will
be recalled if programmed to do so through the
Driver Information Center (DIC). The numbers on the
back of the transmitters, 1 or 2, correspond to the
numbers on the memory controls.

the band on mist longer.
You can set the wiper speed for a long or short delay
between wipes. This can be very useful in light rain
or snow. Turn the band to choose the delay time. The

For steady wiping at low speed, turn the band away from
you to the ®rst solid band past the delay settings.

the second solid band past the delay settings. To
stop the wipers, move the band to off position.

before using them. If they're frozen to the windshield,
carefully loosen or thaw them. If your blades do become
worn or damaged, get new blades or blade inserts.

Resuming a Set Speed
Suppose you set your cruise control at a desired speed
and then you apply the brake or press the clutch
pedal (if equipped). This, of course, disengages the
cruise control. But you don't need to reset it.
Once you're going about 25 mph (40 km/h) or more,
you can move the cruise control switch from on to
resume/accelerate brie¯y.
You'll go right back up to your chosen speed and stay
there.
If you hold the switch at resume/accelerate brie¯y, the

or apply the brake. So unless you want to go faster,
don't hold the switch at resume/accelerate.
