WARNING
. Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat belts,
this provides greater safety in the event
of an accident by helping to prevent
persons from being thrown from the
vehicle. This also helps keep children
and others from unintentionally opening
the doors, and will help keep out
intruders.
. Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.

Loose fuel cap warning
The LOOSE FUEL CAP warning appears on
the dot matrix liquid crystal display when
the fuel-filler cap is not tightened correctly
after the vehicle has been refueled. To turn
off the warning, perform the following
steps:
1. Remove and install the fuel-filler cap assoon as possible. (See “Fuel-filler cap ”
earlier in this section.)
2. Tighten the fuel-filler cap until it clicks.
3. Push the reset switch
*Aon the right
side of the combination meter for about
1 second to turn off the LOOSE FUEL CAP warning after tightening the fuel
cap.
WARNING
.
Do not adjust the steering wheel while
driving. You could lose control of your
vehicle and cause an accident.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel any
closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and comfort.
The driver ’s air bag inflates with great
force. If you are unrestrained, leaning
forward, sitting sideways or out of
position in any way, you are at greater
risk of injury or death in a crash. You
may also receive serious or fatal injuries
from the air bag if you are up against it
when it inflates. Always sit back against
the seatback and as far away as practical
from the steering wheel. Always use the
seat belts.

The automatic drive positioner system has
four features:
.Entry/exit function
. Seat synchronization function
. Memory storage
. Setting memory function
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver ’s
seat and steering column will automati-
cally 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.
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 func-
tion
The 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 acti-
vated 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 settings ”settings. (See “Ve-
hicle information and settings ”in the “4.
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice
recognition systems ”section.)
Initialize entry/exit function
If the 12-volt 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 12-volt battery or replacing with a new
fuse, open and close the driver ’s door more
than two times after the ignition switch is
turned from the ON position to the LOCK
position. The entry/exit function will be
activated.

SEAT SYNCHRONIZATION FUNCTION
The seat synchronization function automa-
tically adjusts the positions of the steering
wheel and outside mirrors when the seat is
adjusted using the power seat switches.
However, the steering wheel and outside
mirrors will not move if the seat is adjusted
over the maximum thresholds. The system
considers that the steering wheel and
outside mirror adjustments are not neces-
sary because the seat may not be adjusted
for the driving position. Note that the
function is set to disabled as the factory
default setting.The seat synchronization function operates
under the following conditions:
.
The ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.
. The selector lever is in the P (Park)
position.
If the outside mirrors or the steering wheel
reaches its maximum adjustment, the
function is automatically disabled. Restart
the function by selecting a previously
stored seat memory position using the
memory switches (1 or 2). An Intelligent
Key that was previously linked to the
stored seat memory can also be used to
restart the function.
If a seat position was not previously stored
in the seat memory, restart the function by
adjusting the steering wheel and outside
mirrors manually for your best driving
position and then drive the vehicle above
4 MPH (7 km/h).
Cancel or activate seat synchroni-
zation function
The selector lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the ACC
position.
MEMORY STORAGE
Two 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 mem-
ory 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 col-
umn and outside mirrors to the desired
positions by manually operating each
adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, 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) fully for at least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed
memory switch will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the
