Memory Seats
Overview
If equipped, the memory seat feature allows
drivers to save their unique driving positions
and a shared exit position. See“Saving
Seating Positions” later in this section. The
saved positions can be recalled manually by
all drivers. See “Manually Recalling Seating
Positions” later in this section. Drivers with
remote key 1 and 2 can also recall them
automatically. See “Auto Seat Entry Memory
Recall” or“Auto Seat Exit Memory Recall”
later in this section. To enable automatic
recalls, turn on Seat Entry Memory and/or
Seat Exit Memory. See “Enable Automatic
Recalls” under“Vehicle Personalization Settings”
later in this section. The memory
recalls may be cancelled at any time during
the recall. See “Cancel Memory Seating
Recalls” later in this section.
Identifying Driver Number
The vehicle identifies the current driver by
their remote key number 1–8. The current
remote key number may be identified by
Driver Information Center (DIC) welcome
message, “You are driver x for memory
recalls.” This message is displayed the first
few times the vehicle is turned on when a
different remote key is used. For Seat Entry
Memory to work properly, save positions to
the 1 or 2 memory button matching the
driver number of this welcome message. To
aid in identifying remote key IDs, it is
recommended to only carry one remote key
when entering the vehicle. Perform the
following if the welcome message is not
displayed:
1. Move all remote keys away from the vehicle.
2. Start the vehicle with another remote key. A DIC welcome message should
display indicating the driver number of
the other remote key. Turn the vehicle
off and remove the other remote key
from the vehicle. 3. Start the vehicle with the initial remote
key. The DIC welcome message should
display the driver number of the initial
remote key.
Saving Seating Positions
Read these instructions completely before
saving memory positions.
To save preferred driving positions to
1 and 2: 1. Turn the vehicle on or to ACC/ ACCESSORY. A DIC welcome message
may indicate the driver number of the
current remote key. See “Identifying
Driver Number” previously in this
section.
2. Adjust all available memory features to the desired driving position.
3. Press and release SET; a beep will sound.
4. Immediately upon releasing SET, press and hold memory button 1 or 2 matching
the current Driver’s remote key number
until two beeps sound. If too much time
passes between releasing SET and
pressing 1 or 2, the two beeps will not
sound indicating memory position were
not saved. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to try
again.
