Automatic anti-glare typeThe inside mirror is designed so that it
automatically changes reflection according to
the intensity of the headlights of the following
vehicle.
The anti-glare system will be automatically
turned on when the ignition switch is pushed
to the ON position.
When the anti-glare system is turned on, the
indicator light
*A
will illuminate and excessive
glare from the headlights of the vehicle behind
you will be reduced.
Type A: Push the
switch
*B
to make the
inside rearview mirror operate normally and the
indicator light will turn off. Push the
switch
again to turn the system on.
Type B: Push the “* ” switch
*C
to make the
inside rearview mirror operate normally. The
indicator light will turn off. Push the “I” switch
*D
to turn the system on.
Do not allow any object to cover the
sensors
*E
or apply glass cleaner on
them. Doing so will reduce the sensitivity
of the sensor, resulting in improper opera-
tion.

VANITY MIRRORTo use the front vanity mirror, pull down the sun
visor and pull up the cover.The automatic drive positioner system has two
features:
.
Entry/exit function
. Memory storage
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTIONThis system is designed so that the driver’s seat
and steering column will automatically move
when the selector lever is in the P (Park)
position. This allows the driver to get into and
out of the driver’s seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering wheel will move up when the driver’s
door is opened with the ignition switch in the
LOCK position and the Intelligent Key not
inserted in the Intelligent Key port.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will return
to the previous positions when the ignition
switch is pushed to the ACC position.
The driver’s seat will not return to the previous
positions if the seat or steering adjusting switch
is operated when the seat is at the exit position.Cancel or activate entry/exit functionThe selector lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function can be activated or canceled by pressing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The indicator lights on the memory switches (1
and 2) will blink once when the function is
canceled, and the indicator lights will blink twice
when the function is activated. Note that the
indicator lights may illuminate after 5 seconds
while holding the SET switch. This indicates
readiness for linking the Intelligent Key to a
stored memory position. Keep the SET switch
pressed for more than 10 seconds to turn on or
off the entry/exit function.
The entry/exit function can also be activated or
canceled if the “Lift Steering Wheel on Exit” key
or “Slide Driver Seat Back on Exit” key is turned
to ON or OFF in the “Comfort & Conv.” settings.
(See “VEHICLE INFORMATION AND SET-
TINGS” in the “4. Center display, heater, air
conditioner, audio, phone and voice recognition
systems” section.)
Initialize entry/exit functionIf the battery cable is disconnected, or if the fuse
opens, the entry/exit function will not work
though this function was set on before. 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 after the ignition
switch is placed in the LOCK position from the
ON position. The entry/exit function will be
activated.

MEMORY STORAGETwo positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column and outside mirrors can be stored in the
automatic drive positioner memory. Follow these
procedures to use the memory system.
1. Move the selector lever to the P (Park)position.
2. Push the ignition switch to the ON position.
3. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors to the desired positions by
manually operating each adjusting switch.
For additional information, see “SEATS” in
the “1. Safety — Seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system” section and “TILT/TELESCOPIC STEERING” earlier in
this section and “OUTSIDE MIRRORS”
earlier in this section.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1 or 2) .
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will stay on for approximately 5
seconds after pushing the switch.
If memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be deleted.
Linking Intelligent Key to a stored mem-
ory positionThe Intelligent Key can be linked to a stored
memory position with the following procedure.
1. Follow one of the steps for storing a memoryposition.
. While the indicator light for the memory
switch being set is illuminated for 5 sec-
onds, push the
button on the Intelligent
Key.
. Push the ignition switch to the OFF position,
and then push the SET switch. Push the
button while pushing the memory
button while the indicator light stays on for
approximately 5 seconds.
If the indicator light blinks, the Intelligent Key is
linked to that memory setting. Push the ignition switch to the OFF position, and
then push the
button on the Intelligent Key.
The driver’s seat, steering wheel and outside
mirrors will move to the memorized position.
Confirming memory storage. Push the ignition switch to the ON position
and push the SET switch. If the main
memory has not been stored, the indicator
light will come on for approximately 0.5
second. When the memory has stored in
position, the indicator light will stay on for
approximately 5 seconds.
. If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the memory will be canceled. In
this case, reset the desired position using
the previous procedure.
. If optional keys are added to your vehicle,
the memory storage procedure to switch 1
or 2 and linking Intelligent Key procedure to
a stored memory position should be per-
formed again for each Intelligent Key. For
additional Intelligent Key information, see
“KEYS” earlier in this section.Selecting the memorized position1. Move the selector lever to the P (Park)
position.
2. Use one of the following methods to move the driver’s seat, the outside mirrors and the
steering wheel.

rage) .
. When the adjusting switch for the driver’s
seat and steering column is turned on while
the automatic drive positioner is operating.
. When the seat, steering column and outside
mirrors have already been moved to the
memorized position.
. When no position is stored in the memory
switch. .
When the engine is started while moving the
automatic drive positioner.
. When the selector lever is moved from the P
(Park) position to any other position. (How-
ever, it will not be canceled while the seat
and steering column are returning to the
previous positions (entry/exit function) .)
. When the driver’s door remains open for
more than 45 seconds and the ignition
switch is not in the ON position.
