Memory Seat, Mirrors, and Pedals
If your vehicle has this
feature, the controls for
the memory function
are located on the
driver’s door.
These buttons are used to program and recall
memory settings for the driver’s seating position,
both outside mirror positions, and the adjustable
pedals, if equipped. The settings for these features
can be saved for up to two drivers.
To store the memory settings, do the following:
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, including the seatback
recliner and lumbar, both of the outside
mirrors, and the adjustable pedals, if
equipped, to the desired position.
SeeAdjustable Throttle and Brake Pedal
on page 116for more information.2. Press and hold the 1 or 2 button of the
memory control for three seconds. A
double chime will sound to let you know
that the position has been stored.
To repeat the procedure for a second driver,
follow the preceding steps, but press the other
numbered memory control button.
To recall the memory settings, do one of the
following:
Press and release button 1 or 2 while the
vehicle is in PARK (P). A single chime
will sound and the memory position will be
recalled.
If programmed to do so through the Driver
Information Center (DIC), pressing the
unlock button on the remote keyless entry
transmitter will recall the preset driver’s
memory seat, mirrors, and adjustable pedals
position. The numbers on the back of the
transmitters, 1 or 2, correspond to the numbers
on the memory controls.
If programmed to do so through the DIC,
placing the key in the ignition will recall
the driver’s memory seat, mirrors, and
adjustable pedals positions.

See “Seat Recall” underDIC Vehicle
Customization on page 229for more information.

feature at any time, press one of the memory
buttons or power seat controls.
Easy Exit Seat
The control for the easy exit seat function is
located on the driver’s door below the memory
buttons 1 and 2. The easy exit seat button is used
to program and recall the desired driver’s seat
position when exiting or entering the vehicle. The
mirrors, power lumbar, recline, and adjustable
pedals, if equipped, positions will not be stored or
recalled when using the easy exit seat function.
The seat position can be saved for up to
two drivers.
To store the easy exit seat position, do the
following:
1. Press and release the 1 or 2 button of the
memory control for less than three seconds.
The seat will move to the stored memory
position.
2. Adjust the seat to the desired exit position.3. Press and hold the easy exit seat button for
more than three seconds. A double chime will
sound to let you know that the position has
been stored for the selected button 1 or 2.
To repeat the procedure for a second driver,
follow the preceding steps, but press the other
numbered memory control button.
To recall the easy exit seat position, do one of the
following:
Press the easy exit seat button on the
memory control while the vehicle is in
PARK (P). The seat will move to the stored
exit position.
Or, if the easy exit seat feature is activated in
the Driver Information Center (DIC), removing
the key from the ignition will move the seat
to the exit position. See “Easy Exit Seat” under
DIC Vehicle Customization on page 229for
more information on activating this feature in
the DIC.
If an easy exit seat position has not been stored,
the default position is all the way rearward.

The best way to protect the fetus is to protect
the mother. When a safety belt is worn properly,
it is more likely that the fetus will not be hurt
in a crash. For pregnant women, as for anyone,
the key to making safety belts effective is wearing
them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
To learn how to wear the right front passenger’s
safety belt properly, seeDriver Position
on page 26.
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the
same way as the driver’s safety belt — except
for one thing. If you ever pull the shoulder portion
of the belt out all the way, you will engage the
child restraint locking feature. If this happens, let
the belt go back all the way and start again.
Rear Seat Passengers
It is very important for rear seat passengers to
buckle up! Accident statistics show that unbelted
people in the rear seat are hurt more often in
crashes than those who are wearing safety belts.
Rear passengers who are not safety belted
can be thrown out of the vehicle in a crash. And
they can strike others in the vehicle who are
wearing safety belts.

6. To tighten the belt, push down on the child
restraint, pull the shoulder portion of the belt
to tighten the lap portion of the belt, and
feed the shoulder belt back into the retractor.If you are using a forward-facing child
restraint, you may nd it helpful to use your
knee to push down on the child restraint
as you tighten the belt. You should not be able
to pull more of the belt from the retractor
once the lock has been set.
7. Push and pull the child restraint in different
directions to be sure it is secure.
8. If the airbag is off, the off indicator will come
on and stay on when the key is turned to
RUN or START.
If a child restraint has been installed and the on
indicator is lit, turn the vehicle off. Remove
the child restraint from the vehicle and reinstall
the child restraint.

Passenger Sensing System
Your vehicle has a passenger sensing system for
the right front passenger’s position. A passenger
airbag status indicator in the rearview mirror will
be visible when you turn your ignition key to
START or RUN.The words ON and OFF, or the symbol for on
and off, will be visible during the system check.
When the system check is complete, either
the word ON or the word OFF, or the symbol for
on or the symbol for off, will be visible. See
Passenger Airbag Status Indicator on page 202.
The passenger sensing system will turn off
the right front passenger’s frontal airbag under
certain conditions. The driver’s airbags are not
part of the passenger sensing system.
The passenger sensing system works with
sensors that are part of the right front passenger’s
seat and safety belt. The sensors are designed
to detect the presence of a properly-seated
occupant and determine if the passenger’s frontal
airbag should be enabled (may inate) or not.
Accident statistics show that children are safer
if they are restrained in the rear rather than
the front seat. We recommend that child restraints
be secured in a rear seat, including an infant
riding in a rear-facing infant seat, a child riding
in a forward-facing child seat, and an older
child riding in a booster seat.

Servicing Your Airbag-Equipped
Vehicle
Airbags affect how your vehicle should be
serviced. There are parts of the airbag system
in several places around your vehicle. You do not
want the system to inate while someone is
working on your vehicle. Your dealer and the
service manual have information about servicing
your vehicle and the airbag system. To purchase
a service manual, seeService Publications
Ordering Information on page 545.
{CAUTION:
For up to 10 seconds after the ignition
key is turned off and the battery is
disconnected, an airbag can still inate
during improper service. You can be
injured if you are close to an airbag when
it inates. Avoid yellow connectors. They
are probably part of the airbag system. Be
sure to follow proper service procedures,
and make sure the person performing
work for you is qualied to do so.
The airbag system does not need regular
maintenance.
