AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONERPFP:28491
System Description AIS002XB

The system automatically moves the driver seat to facilitate entry/exit to/from the vehicle. The automatic
driver positioner control unit can also store the optimum driving positions (driver seat, pedal position and
door mirror position) for 2 people. If the driver is changes, one-touch operation allows changing to the
other driving position.

The settings (ON/OFF) of the automatic sliding seat (Entry/Exiting operation) at entry/exit can be changed
as desired, using the display unit in the center of the instrument panel. The set content is transmitted by
CAN communication, from display unit (without NAVI) or display control unit (with NAVI) to driver seat con-
trol unit.

Using CONSULT-II, the seat slide amount at entry/exit setting can be changed.
MANUAL OPERATION
The driving position [seat position, steering wheel position (tilt, telescopic) and door mirror position] can be
adjusted with the power seat switch or ADP steering switch or door mirror remote control switch.
NOTE:

The seat can be manually operated with the ignition switch OFF.

The door mirrors can be manually operated with the ignition switch turned ACC or ON.
