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. 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”(P.1-2),“Tilt/tele-
scopic steering” (P.3-24) and“Outside
mirrors” (P.3-27).
2. 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
switch.
When the memory is stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2), a buzzer will
sound.
If memory is stored in the same
memory switch, the previous memory
will be deleted.
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 seconds. When the
memory has stored in position, the
indicator light will stay on for approxi-
mately 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.
Selecting the memorized position
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)position.
2. Push the memory switch (1 or 2) fully for at least 1 second.
The driver’s seat, steering column and
outside mirrors will move to the mem-
orized position with the indicator light
flashing, and then the light will stay on
for approximately 5 seconds.
Linking log-in function to a stored
memory position
The log-in function can be linked to a
stored memory position with the following
procedure.
1. Place the ignition switch in the ONposition while carrying an Intelligent
Key that was registered to the vehicle
with the log-in function. For more
details, see “Log-in function” (P.3-14).
2. Adjust the position of the driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors
manually. See “Seats”(P.1-2),“Tilt/
telescopic steering” (P.3-24) and“Out-
side mirrors” (P.3-27).
3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position. The next time you log in (selecting the user
on the display) after placing the ignition
switch in the ON position while carrying
the Intelligent Key, the system will auto-
matically adjust to the memorized driving
position.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The automatic drive positioner system will
not work or will stop operating under the
following conditions:

parallel lane markers; lane markers
that are faded or not painted clearly;
yellow painted lane markers; non-stan-
dard lane markers; or lane markers
covered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
. On roads where the discontinued lane
markers are still detectable. .
On roads where there are sharp curves.
. On roads where there are sharply
contrasting objects, such as shadows,
snow, water, wheel ruts, seams or lines
remaining after road repairs. (The Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) system could
detect these items as lane markers.)
. On roads where the traveling lane
merges or separates.
. When the vehicle’s traveling direction
does not align with the lane marker.
. When traveling close to the vehicle in
front of you, which obstructs the lane
camera unit detection range.
. When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the
windshield in front of the lane camera
unit.
. When the headlights are not bright due
to dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not
adjusted properly.
. When strong light enters the lane
camera unit. (For example, the light
directly shines on the front of the
