CAUTION
■When adjusting the seat position
●Take care when adjusting the seat position to ensure that other passengers are not
injured by the moving seat.
●Do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts to avoid injury.
Fingers or hands may become jammed in the se
at mechanism.
●Make sure to leave enough space around the feet so they do not get stuck.
■Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not recline the seat
more than necessary.
If the seat is too rec lined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces
directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk
of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be ma de while driving as the seat may unexpectedly move and
cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

■When driving position memory is linked with door unlock operation
If the driver’s door is opened, the driver’s seat will move toward the memorized position
but stop slightly beforehand to allow easy access to the vehicle.
Turning the engine switch to ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode, or fastening the
driver’s seat belt moves the seat fully into the memorized position.
■Operating the driving position memory after turning the engine switch off
Memorized seat positions can be activated up to 180 seconds after the driver’s door is
opened and another 60 seconds after it is closed again. Memorized steering wheel posi-
tion can be activated by pr essing the engine switch.
■Correct seat position
When the seat is in the most forward or mo st backward position, and the seat is being
moved in those directions, the system may not correctly recognize the current position
and the memorized position will not be correctly recalled.
■The auto away function for exiting
If the seat is already close to the rearmost position, the auto away function may not oper-
ate when the driver exits the vehicle.
■When the driving position is recalled by a memory linked door unlock operation
●Since each memorized driving position is regi stered to a specific electronic key, the
driving position recalled may be different depending on the carried key.
●When only doors other than the driver’s d oor are unlocked by the smart access system
with push-button start, the driving position will not be recalled. In this case, press a driv-
ing position memory button to recall the desired driving position.

changed. (Customizable features: P. 5 2 5 )
