steering wheel will move up:
cWhen the key is removed from the ignition
switch and the driver’s door is opened.cWhen the driver’s door is opened with the
key turned to LOCK.

with the driver’s door open.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will return to
previous position:
cWhen the key is inserted into the ignition
switch and the driver’s door is closed.
cWhen the driver’s door is closed with the key
turned to LOCK.

while the automatic transmission selector
lever is in the P (Park) position.
