WARNING
Do not adjust the driver’s seat while
driving so full attention may be given
to vehicle operation.
Do not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.Operating tipsThe seat motor has an auto-reset overload
protection circuit. If the motor stops during
operation, wait 30 seconds, then reactivate
the switch.
Do not operate the power support seat
for a long period of time when the engine is
off. This will discharge the battery.

side wall. See “Seat belt hook” later in this
section.
2. Secure the center seat belt and tongues into
the retractor base. See “Stowing rear center
seat belt” later in this section.
3. Put the seat belt buckles into the seat cush-
ion.
See “Storing rear seat belt buckles” later in
this section.4. Remove the head restraints.
5. After closing the tonneau subcover (if so

beside the cargo area and fold the seatback.
6. When returning the seatbacks, be sure to
install the head restraints and attach the rear
center seat belt connector.
WARNING
Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the rear seat when it
is in the fold-down position. Use of
these areas by passengers without
proper restraints could result in seri-
ous injury in an accident or sudden
stop.
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area inside of a vehicle. In a
collision, people riding in these areas
are more likely to be seriously in-
jured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.

WARNING
Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping to
prevent persons from being thrown
from the vehicle. This also helps keep
children and others from uninten-
tionally opening the doors, and will
help keep out intruders.
Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
Do not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
LOCKING WITH KEY

or unlock all doors simultaneously.
Turning the driver’s door key to the front of
the vehicle will lock all doors (including the
back door) and fuel filler lid.
Turning the driver’s door key one time to the
rear of the vehicle will unlock the driver’s
door. From that position, returning the key to
neutral (where the key can only be removed
and inserted) and turning it to the rear againwithin 5 seconds will unlock all doors and fuel
filler lid.
Opening and closing front windowsTurn the driver’s door key to the unlock position
and hold for about 1 second, the front windows
will begin to lower.
To stop opening, turn the key to the neutral
position.
To close the front windows with the door key

in the P (Park) position. This allows the driver to
get into and out of the driver’s seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward:
When the key is removed from the ignition
switch.
When the driver’s door is opened with the
key turned to LOCK.
When the key is turned from ACC to LOCK
with the driver’s door open while the selector
lever is in the P (Park) position.
The driver’s seat will return to the previous
position:
When the key is inserted into the ignition
switch.
When the driver’s door is closed with the key

while the selector lever is in the P (Park)
position.
The entry/exit feature can be adjusted or can-
celed. See “Display screen, heater, air condi-
tioner and audio systems” section of this manual.
MEMORY STORAGETwo positions for the driver’s seat, pedals (Brake

2. Turn the ignition ON.
3. Adjust the driver’s seat, pedals (Brake and
Accelerator) and outside mirrors to the de-
sired positions by manually operating each
adjusting switch. For additional information,
see “Seats” in the “Safety — Seats, seat beltsand supplemental air bags” section and
“Pedal position adjustment” and “Outside
mirrors” earlier in this section.
During this step, do not turn the ignition to
any positions other than ON.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds,
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.
After the indicator light goes off, the selected
positions are stored in the selected memory
(1 or 2).
If memory is stored in the same memory switch,
the previous memory will be deleted.
Linking a keyfobto a stored memory
positionA keyfobcan be linked to a stored memory
position with the following procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memory posi-
tion.
2. While the indicator light for the memory

light will stay on for approximately 5 seconds.
If 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 than
two times with the ignition key in the LOCK
