WARNING
∙ Do not ride in a moving vehicle when theseatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you could be
thrown into it and receive neck or other
serious injuries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious internal
injuries. ∙ For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be
upright. Always sit well back and upright
in the seat with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat properly. For additional
information, refer to “Precautions on
seat belt usage” in this section.
∙ After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.
∙ Do not leave children unattended inside the vehicle. They could unknowingly acti-
vate switches or controls or make the ve-
hicle move. Unattended children could
become involved in serious accidents. ∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and/or its systems, do not leave
children, people who require the assis-
tance of others or pets unattended in
your vehicle. Additionally, the tempera-
ture inside a closed vehicle on a warm day
can quickly become high enough to cause
a significant risk of injury or death to
people and pets.
∙ Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driv- ing so full attention may be given to ve-
hicle operation. The seat may move sud-
denly and could cause loss of control of
the vehicle.
∙ The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort. Seat belts
are most effective when the passenger
sits well back and straight up in the seat.
If the seatback is reclined, the risk of slid-
ing under the lap belt and being injured is
increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be sure
not to contact any moving parts to avoid
possible injuries and/or damage.

2-20Instruments and controls
When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be
opened using the inside or outside door
handles. The doors must be unlocked to open
the doors.
WARNING
∙ Always have the doors locked while driv-ing. 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.
∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the ve-
hicle and/or its systems, including en-
trapment in windows or inadvertent door
lock activation, do not leave children,
people who require the assistance of oth-
ers or pets unattended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature inside a
closed vehicle on a warm day can quickly
become high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people and
pets.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-17
WARNING
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel whiledriving. You could lose control of your ve-
hicle 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. Al-
ways sit back against the seatback and as
far away as practical from the steering
wheel. Always use the seat belts.
TILT AND TELESCOPIC
OPERATION
To adjust the steering wheel move the switch
1in the following directions:
∙ Adjust the steering wheel up or down in direction
2to the desired tilt position.
∙ Adjust the steering wheel forward or backward in direction
3to the desired
telescopic position.
CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and telescop-
ing functions of the steering wheel, after
the vehicle’s battery has been discharged,
may prevent the steering wheel position
from being adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive positioner:
Both the tilt and telescopic steering opera-
tion must be reset after the vehicle’s battery
has been discharged in order to prevent the
tilt and telescopic operation from locking in
one position. When the battery has been re-
charged 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.

more easily. The steering wheel moves back
into position when the driver’s door is closed
and the ignition switch is pushed.

The automatic drive positioner system has
two features:∙ Memory storage function
∙ Entry/exit function
MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column, and outside mirrors can be stored in
the automatic drive positioner memory.
NOTE:
The vehicle should be stopped while setting
the memory. Follow these procedures to use the memory
system.
1. Place the ignition in the ON or ACC po- sition.
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,
refer to “Seats” in the “Safety—Seats,
seat belts and supplemental restraint
system” section of this manual, and
“Steering wheel” and “Outside mirrors” in
this section.
3. Push the SET switch and, within 5 sec- onds, push the memory switch (1 or 2).
4. The indicator light for the pushed memory switch will come ON and stay
ON for approximately 5 seconds.
5. The chime will sound when the memory has been stored.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is stored in the
same memory switch, the previous memory
position will be overwritten by the new
stored position.

Confirming memory storage
∙ Push the SET switch.
∙ If a memory position has been stored inthe switch (1 or 2) then the indicator light
for the respective switch will stay on for
approximately 5 seconds.
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 following procedure.
1. Follow steps 1-3 in the “Memory storage function” section for storing the memory
position.
2. The indicator light for the pushed memory switch will come on. While the
indicator light is on for 5 seconds, press
the
button on the key fob. The
hazard lights will flash twice. The indica-
tor light of the linked memory switch will
blink and click twice. After the indicator
light goes off, the key fob is linked to that
memory setting. Once it is linked, when the ignition switch is in
the OFF position, pressing the
button
on the key fob will move the driver’s seat,
steering wheel and outside mirrors to the
linked memory switch position.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is stored in the
linked memory switch, then the key fob will
link the new position and overwrites the pre-
vious position.
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and automatic operation steering col-
umn 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 column will move up:
∙ When the driver’s door is opened with the ignition switch placed in the OFF posi-
tion.
∙ When the ignition switch is changed from ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open. The driver’s seat and steering wheel will re-
turn to the previous position:
∙ When the ignition switch is changed from ACC or ON while the shift lever is in the P
(Park) position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through “Vehicle Settings” in the ve-
hicle information display by performing the
following: ∙ Switch the Exit Seat Slide from “On” to “Off”.
∙ Switch the Exit Steering Up from “On” to “Off”.
Restarting the entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the stored memory positions will
be lost and some of the functions will be
restricted:
1. Drive the vehicle over 25 mph (40 km/h).
OR 2. Open and close the driver’s door more than two times with the ignition switch
in the OFF position.
The entry/exit function should now work
properly.
