Driving position memory (if equipped)
Your preferred driving position (the position of the driver's seat, steering
wheel and outside rear view mirrors) can be memorized and recalled with
the touch of a button. It is also possible to set this function to activate auto-
matically when the doors are unlocked.
Three different driving positions can be entered into memory.
■ Entering a position to memory
Vehicles with an automatic transmission: Check that the shift lever is
set in P.
Vehicles with a manual transmission: Check that the parking brake is
set.
Switch to IGNITION ON mode.
Adjust the driver’s seat, steering wheel, and outside rear view
mirrors to the desired positions. While pushing the “SET” button,
push button “1”, “2” or “3” until
the signal beeps.
If the selected button has
already been preset, the previ-
ously recorded position will be
overwritten.
