The micro computer can memorize the
position of the driver’s seat and outside
rear view mirror. Two different driving
position profiles can be entered into
computer ’s memory.
Recording a driving position in the
computer’s memory can only be done
when the ignition key is in the “ON”
position and the automatic transmission
selector lever is in the “P” position.
SETTING THE DRIVING POSITION1. Adjust the driver ’s seat and outside rear view mirror to the desired posi-
tion.
2. While pushing the “SET” button, push button “1” or “2” until the sig-
nal beeps.
The beep sound means that the positions
are recorded in the computer ’s memory.
By repeating these two steps and pressing
the remaining button, the driving position
for another driver can be recorded.
To set a new memorized position, select
the desired position and perform step 2.
The previous memory will be erased and
a new position will be set. To make only slight changes to an already
memorized position, the easiest way is to
first activate the memorized position, then
make the desired changes and perform
step 2 above.

RECALLING THE MEMORIZED POSITION
When you push button “1” or “2”, the
driving position will be automatically
adjusted to the position recorded for
that button.CONDITIONS FOR MEMORIZED
POSITION ACTIVATION
Ignition key “ON” and shift lever in “P”
position
All parts of the memorized positions
can be activated. However, if the brake
pedal is being depressed, the seat
position will not change.
Key not in ignition switch and within 30
seconds of opening driver ’s door
The memorized position can be acti-
vated.
If any driving position memory switch is
pushed while one of the memorized driv-
ing position profiles is being activated, the
operation will stop.
To reactivate the system, push the desired
button (“1” or “2”) again.
The driving position memory control sys-
tem cannot be operated while the vehicle
is moving.
If the vehicle’s battery is disconnected,
the computer’s memory will be erased and
the memorized position will have to be set
again.
CAUTION
Do not start the vehicle while the
adjustment are being made.
Take care not to select the wrong
button, or the seat could strike the
rear passenger or hit your body
against the steering wheel. If this
happens, you can stop the move-
ment by pressing another driving
position memory switch, or de-
pressing the brake pedal.
