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
position.
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.
The entry/exit function can be canceled
through “Vehicle settings” in the vehicle
information display by performing the
following:
.Switch the “Exit Seat Slide” ON to OFF.
For additional information, refer to
“Vehicle settings” (P.2-23).
. Switch the “Exit Steering Up” ON to
OFF. For additional information, refer
to “Vehicle settings” (P.2-23).
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 connect-
ing 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 func-
tion will be activated.
MEMORY STORAGE
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steer-
ing column and outside mirrors can be
stored in the memory switch. 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 col- umn and outside mirrors to the de-
sired positions by manually operating
each adjusting switch. For additional
information, see “Seats” (P.1-3) and
“Tilt/telescopic steering” (P.3-29) and
“Outside mirrors” (P.3-38).
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
memory switch will stay on for ap- proximately 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 follow-
ing procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memory
position.
2. While the indicator light for the mem- ory 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 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 second.
When the memory has stored in posi-
tion, 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 de-
sired position using the previous pro-
cedure.
. If optional Intelligent Keys are added
to your vehicle, the memory storage
procedure to switch 1 or 2 and linking
Intelligent Key procedure to a stored
memory position should be per-
formed again for each Intelligent Key.
For additional Intelligent Key informa-
tion, see “Keys” (P.3-2).
Selecting the memorized position
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)
position.
2. Use one of the following methods to move the driver’s seat, the outside
mirrors and the steering wheel.
.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
memorized position or to the exit
position when the entry/exit function
is set to active with the indicator light
flashing, and then the light will stay on
for approximately 5 seconds.
SETTING MEMORY FUNCTION
The status of the following settings can
be linked to the Intelligent Key and the
memorized settings can be available for
each Intelligent Key.
.
Air conditioner system
. Navigation system (if so equipped)
. Audio system
To use the memory function, lock the
doors with the Intelligent Key that is
linked to the settings.
To enable the memorized settings:
1. Carry the Intelligent Key that is linked to the settings, and unlock the doors
by pushing the driver’s door handle
request switch or “UNLOCK”
but-
ton on the Intelligent Key.
2. Place the ignition switch in the ON position. “Connection with the key has
been done” will be displayed on the
screen and the memorized settings
are available (only when a new Intel-
ligent Key is used).
SYSTEM OPERATION
The memory seat system will not work or
will stop operating under the following
conditions:
.When the vehicle speed is above 0
MPH (0 km/h) or 4 MPH (7 km/h) for
some limited functions such linking an
Intelligent Key to the vehicle when the
power source is turned on from off or
during the Exit function.
. When any of the memory switches are
pushed while the memory seat is
operating.
. When the adjusting switch for the
driver’s seat and steering column is
turned on while the memory seat is
operating.
. When the seat has already been
moved to the memorized position.
. When no seat position is stored in the
memory switch.
. When the shift lever is moved from the
P (Park) position to any other position.
