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
