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 posi-
tion 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.
MANUAL OPERATION (if so
equipped)
Tilt and telescopic operation
Pull the lock lever1down:
●Adjust the steering wheel up or down in
direction
2to the desired position.
●Adjust the steering wheel forward or back-
ward in direction
3to the desired position.
Push the lock lever
1up firmly to lock the
steering wheel in place.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION (if so
equipped)

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-31

CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and tele-
scoping functions of the steering wheel,
after the vehicle’s battery has been dis-
charged, may prevent the steering wheel
position from being adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive positioner: Both
the tilt and telescopic steering operation must be
reset after the vehicle’s battery has been dis-
charged in order to prevent the tilt and telescopic
operation from locking in one position. When the
battery has been recharged or replaced, perform
the following:
●For tilt operation: Adjust the switch
1so
the steering wheel moves to the highest
position
2that can be reached.
●For telescopic operation: Adjust the switch
1so the steering wheel moves to the most
forward and backward position
3that can
be reached.
Performing these operations resets the range of
the steering wheel’s tilt and telescopic function.
Entry/Exit function
The automatic drive positioner system will make
the steering wheel move up automatically when
the driver’s door is opened and the ignition
switch is in the LOCK position. This lets the driver
get into and out of the seat more easily. The
steering wheel moves back into position when
the driver’s door is closed and the ignition switch
is pushed.
For additional information, refer to “Automatic
drive positioner” in this section.

push the memory switch (1 or 2) .
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch.
After the indicator light goes off, the se-
lected positions are stored in the selected
memory (1 or 2) . A chime will sound if the
memory has been stored correctly (if so
equipped) .
If a new memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be deleted.
Linking a key fob to a stored memory
position
Each key fob can be linked to a stored memory
position (memory switch 1 or 2) with the follow-
ing procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memory posi-
tion.2. While the indicator light for the memory
switch being set is illuminated for 5 sec-
onds, press the
button on the key fob.
The indicator light will blink. After the indica-
tor light goes off, the key fob is linked to that
memory setting.
With the ignition switch placed in the OFF posi-
tion, press the
button on the key fob. The
driver’s seat, steering wheel and outside mirrors
will move to the memorized position.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is saved to the
memory switch, the key fob automatically
re-links.
Reverse tilt-down feature (if so
equipped)
The reverse tilt-down feature will turn the se-
lected outside mirror surface downward to pro-
vide better rear visibility close to the vehicle.
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
turn the outside mirror control switch to the left or
right position. Only one mirror can be selected at
a time.
Move the shift lever to R (Reverse) . The selected
mirror will turn downward.
The selected mirror surface will return to its original
position when any of the following have occurred:
●The shift lever is moved to any position other
than R (Reverse) .
●The outside mirror control switch is set to the
neutral or center position.
●The ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.
NOTE:
If the outside mirror control switch is in the
neutral position, neither mirror will turn
downward when the shift lever is moved to
R (Reverse) .
Seat synchronization function
The seat synchronization function automatically
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 adjust-
ments are not necessary because the seat may
not be adjusted for the driving position. Note that
the function is set to disabled as the factory
default setting.
