OPERATION The automatic drive positioner system
has two features:
O Entry/exit function (only available on
models equipped with automatic
transmission)
O Memory storage function
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION (if so
equipped) This system is designed so that the driv-
er's seat and steering column will auto-
matically move when the automatic trans-
mission selector lever is in the P (Park)
position. This allows the driver to get into
and out of the driver's seat more easily.
(This feature is not available on models
equipped with manual transmission.)
The driver's seat will slide backward and
the steering wheel will move up when the
driver's door is opened with the key or ig-
nition switch in the LOCK position.
The driver's seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous positions:
O When the key is inserted into the igni-
tion switch after closing the driver's door, or when the driver's door is
closed after inserting the key into the
ignition switch.
O When the ignition switch is pushed
with the driver's door closed.
O When the key or ignition switch is
turned to the ON position.
Initializing entry/exit function The entry/exit function can be activated
or cancelled by pushing and holding the
SET switch for more than 10 seconds
while the ignition switch is in the LOCK
position. The indicator light will blink
once when the function is cancelled, and
the indicator light will blink twice when
the function is activated. If the battery
cable is disconnected, or if the fuse
opens, the entry/exit function will be can-
celled. In such a case, after connecting
the battery or replacing with a new fuse,
open and close the driver's door more
than two times with the ignition switch or
ignition switch in the LOCK position. The
entry/exit function will be activated.SPA1829

MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION Two positions for the driver's seat and
steering column can be stored in the au- tomatic drive positioner memory. Follow
these procedures to use the memory sys-
tem.
1. For vehicles equipped with automatic
transmission, move the selector lever
to the P (Park) position.
For vehicles equipped with manual
transmission, move the shift lever to
the N (Neutral) position and apply the
parking brake.
2. Adjust the driver's seat and steering
column to the desired positions by
manually operating each adjusting
switch. For additional information, see
ªSeatsº in the ª1. Safety Ð Seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint
systemº section and ªSteering wheelº
earlier in this section.
3. Turn the ignition ON.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 sec-
onds, 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 approximately 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 a new memory is stored in the same
memory switch, the previous memory
will be deleted.
Linking a keyfob or Intelligent Key
to a stored memory position A keyfob or Intelligent Key can be linked
to a stored memory position with the fol-
lowing procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memory
position.
2. While the indicator light for the
memory switch being set is illumi-
nated for 5 seconds, push the
button on the keyfob or Intelli-
gent Key. The indicator light will blink.
After the indicator light goes off, the
keyfob or Intelligent Key is linked to
that memory setting.
With the key removed from the ignition
switch, push the button on the
keyfob or Intelligent Key. The driver's seat
and steering wheel will move to the
memorized position.SPA2159

if the fuse opens, the memory will be
canceled.
Reset the desired position using the
previous procedure.
Selecting the memorized position 1. For vehicles equipped with automatic
transmission, move the selector lever
to the P (Park) position.
For vehicles equipped with manual
transmission, move the shift lever in
the N (Neutral) position and apply the
parking brake.
2. Use one of the following methods to
move the driver's seat and the

not work or will stop operating under the
following conditions:
O when the vehicle speed is above 4
MPH (7 km/h).
O when the adjusting switch for the driv-
er's seat and steering column is
turned on while the automatic drive
positioner is operating.
O when the cancel switch (if so
equipped) is pushed to the CANCEL
side. (However, it will not be cancelled
if the switch is pushed while the seat
and steering column are returning to the previous positions (entry/exit
function).)
O when the memory switch 1 or 2 is not
pushed and held for at least 1 second.
O when the seat has already been
moved to the memorized position.
O when no seat position is stored in the
memory switch.
O when the parking brake is not applied.

You can still use the Memo Pad and ac-
cess Setup.
To turn on the system again, choose the
Bluetooth On command from the Setup
command.
SPEAKER ADAPTATION (SA) MODE Speaker Adaptation allows up to two out-of
dialect users to train the system to improve
recognition accuracy. By repeating a
number of commands, the users can create
a voice model of their own voice that is
stored in the system. The system is ca-
pable of storing a different speaker adapta-
tion model for memory A and memory B.
If memory A is available, the system will
use memory A to store the model. If
memory A is in use and memory B is
available, the system will use memory B
to store the model. If both of the memory
locations are in use, the system will ask
the user to select which memory location
should be overwritten.
Training procedure The procedure for training a voice is as
follows.
1. Position the vehicle in a reasonably
quiet outdoor location. 2. Sit in the driver's seat with the engine
running, the parking brake on, and the
transmission in Park.
3. Press and hold the button for
more than 5 seconds.
4. The system announces: ªPress the
PHONE/SEND ( ) button for the
hands-free phone system to enter the
speaker adaptation mode or press the
PHONE/END ( ) button to select a
different language.º
5. Press the button.
For information on selecting a dif-
ferent language, see ªChoosing a lan-
guageº earlier in this section.
6. Voice memory A or memory B is se-
lected automatically. If both memory
locations are already in use, the
system will prompt you to overwrite
one. Follow the instructions provided
by the system.
7. When preparation is complete and you
are ready to begin, the press the
button.
8. The SA mode will be explained. Follow
the instructions provided by the
system. 9. When training is finished, the system
will tell you an adequate number of
phrases have been recorded.
10. The system will ask you to say your
name. Follow the instructions to regis-
ter your name.
11. The system will announce that
speaker adaptation has been com-
pleted and the system is ready.
The SA mode will stop if:
O The button is pressed for more
than 5 seconds in SA mode.
O The vehicle is driven during SA mode.
O The ignition switch is turned to the
OFF or LOCK position.
Training phrases During the SA mode, the system instructs
you to say the following phrases.
(The system will prompt you for each
phrase.)
O phone book new entry
O dial three oh four two nine
O delete call back number
