Vehicle Personalization
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
1 and 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 button of the memory
control for three seconds, to correspond to driver
1 or 2. 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). See
Driver Information
Center (DIC) on page 3-46. The numbers on the
back of the transmitters, 1 or 2, correspond to the
numbers on the memory controls.
The seat and mirror positions can also be recalled when
placing the key in the ignition if programmed to do so
through the Driver Information Center (DIC).
To stop recall movement of the memory seat feature at
any time, press one of the memory buttons or power
seat controls.

Lamps On Reminder
A reminder chime will sound when your headlamps or
parking lamps are manually turned on and your
ignition is off, in LOCK, ACCESSORY, or your door is
open. To disable the chime, turn the light off, then
back on.
Daytime Running Lamps
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) can make it easier for
others to see the front of your vehicle during the
day. DRL can be helpful in many different driving
conditions, but they can be especially helpful in the short
periods after dawn and before sunset. Fully functional
daytime running lamps are required on all vehicles
®rst sold in Canada.
The DRL system will come on when the following
conditions are met:
·The ignition is on,
·the exterior lamp control is in AUTO
·the automatic transmission is not in PARK (P), and
·the light sensor determines it is daytime.When the DRL are on, only your DRL lamps will be on.
The taillamps, sidemarker and other lamps won't be
on. The instrument panel won't be lit up either.
When it begins to get dark, the automatic headlamp
system will switch from DRL to the headlamps or the last
chosen headlamp setting that was used.
When you turn the exterior lamp control to off, the
headlamps will go off, and your DRL lamps will
illuminate, provided it is not dark outside.
Shifting the transmission into PARK (P) will allow you to
idle the vehicle with the DRL off. The DRL will stay
off until you release the parking brake or shift the
transmission out of PARK (P).
Puddle Lamps
Your vehicle is equipped with puddle lamps to help you
see the area near the base of the front doors when it
is dark out. The puddle lamps will illuminate when a door
is opened or when you press the UNLOCK button on
the keyless entry transmitter.
