Self-Limiting Control
To improve vehicle reliability, the memory system in-
cludes a self-limiting control for full travel positioning of
power seat and adjustable pedal movement (all direc-
tions). This self-limiting control may, however, develop
an unintended movement limitation if an obstruction isencountered sometime during usage. One example of
such an occurrence may include a box or package ob-
structing the full rearward movement of the driver's seat.
Once the obstruction is removed, the self-limiting control
may be restored to maximum position. The self-limiting
control may be restored by first reaching the recently
limited or obstructed position, then release and reactivate
the same button or buttons. Continued seat travel beyond
the obstructed position will indicate the recently encoun-
tered self-limitation has been cleared.
Driver Easy Exit and Easy Entry Control
This additional feature provides automatic driver's seat
positioning which will enhance driver mobility out of

ward approximately 2.5 in (60 mm) when the key is
removed from the ignition switch. The seat will move
forward approximately 2.5 in (60 mm) when the key is
placed into the ignition and turned out of the LOCK
