To use the front vanity mirror, pull down the
sun visor and pull up the cover.The automatic drive positioner system has
the following features:
.
Entry/exit function
. Memory storage
. Setting memory function
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and steering column will automatically
move when the shift 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 posi-
tion.
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 shift 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.
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
Vehicle Settings on the center display. (See
the INFINITI InTouch
TMOwner’s Manual.)
Initialize entry/exit function
If 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 turned from the ON
position to the LOCK position. The entry/
exit function will be activated.

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 memory
system.
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)position.
2. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors to the desired posi-
tions by manually operating each adjust-
ing switch. For additional information,
see “Seats” (P.1-2), “Tilt/telescopic
steering” (P.3-24) and “Outside mirrors”
(P.3-26). 3. 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 mem-
ory switch will stay on for approximately
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.
Linking Intelligent Key to a stored
memory position
The Intelligent Key can be linked to a stored
memory position with the following proce-
dure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memoryposition.
2. While the indicator light for the memory switch being set is illuminated for 5
seconds, push the
button on the
Intelligent Key. 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 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 Intelligent Keys are added to
your vehicle, the memory storage proce-
dure to switch 1 or 2 and linking
Intelligent Key procedure to a stored
memory position should be performed
again for each Intelligent Key. For addi-
tional Intelligent Key information, see
“Keys” (P.3-2).
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.
3. The driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors will move to the memor-
ized position with the indicator light
flashing, and then the light will stay on

OPERATING RANGE FOR EN-
GINE START FUNCTION
The Intelligent Key can only be used for
starting the engine when the Intelligent Key
is within the specified operating range.
When the Intelligent Key battery is almost
discharged or strong radio waves are pre-
sent near the operating location, the Intelli-
gent Key system’s operating range becomes
narrower and may not function properly.
If the Intelligent Key is within the operating
range, it is possible for anyone, even some-
one who does not carry the Intelligent Key,
to push the ignition switch to start the
engine.
