For additional information regarding this
feature, see “Memory seat” (P. 3-30).
The memory seat system has three features:
• Memory storage function (Key-link)
• Memory storage function (Switch)
• Entry/exit function
Key-link, when enabled, automatically re-
tains the driver’s last seat, automatic steer-
ing wheel, and outside mirror positions for
that specific key when the ignition is posi-
tioned from ON to OFF.
Each memory switch button (1 or 2) on the
driver’s door can also store one additional
position which is independent of the key-
linked position.
MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
(key-link)
Use the following process to setup key-link:
1. Unlock the vehicle with the desired Intel- ligent Key while the ignition is OFF.
2. Place the ignition in the ON position.
3. Within the “Settings” menu of the vehicle information display, select “Key-Linked
Settings” and press the OK button on the
steering switch.
4. While in the menu, press the OK button on the steering switch to turn the sys-
tem ON/OFF. Once step 4 is completed, every time the
ignition is switched from ON to OFF, the
memory positions of the driver’s seat, au-
tomatic steering wheel and the outside
mirrors are linked to the Intelligent Key.
Follow the same procedure if you want
to link the 2nd, 3rd or 4th Intelligent Key.
NOTE:
If new memory positions are set prior to
turning the ignition from ON to OFF, the
previously linked memory positions for
the respective key will be overwritten by
new positions.
Recalling Intelligent Key memory
positions
If the “Key-Linked Settings” are enabled in
the vehicle information display for that par-
ticular key, every time you enter the vehicle
the driver’s seat, automatic steering wheel,
and outside mirrors will automatically
move to the driver’s last position of the
respective Intelligent Key.
NOTE:
The key-linked memory positions can be
different from the positions stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2).

Linking an Intelligent Key to the
meter display (if so equipped)
Each Intelligent Key, up to a maximum of
four, can be linked to the meter display.
1.
When the system is enabled, the recog-
nized Intelligent Key is displayed at start
up, as well as within “Key-Linked Settings”.
2. When the system is active, the meter setting items are memorized for each
Intelligent Key that has been enabled in
the system.
3. The memory seat system is memorized automatically when the ignition switch
is turned from ON to OFF by the Intelli-
gent Key with no need to set separate
buttons for recalling and memorizing
positions.
4. If two Intelligent Keys are in the vehicle, the system will recognize the Intelligent
Key that was used most recently, such
as to unlock/lock the door.LPD2348

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION (if so
equipped)
This system is designed so that the driver's
seat and steering column will automati-
cally move when the shif t lever is in the P
(Park) position. This allows the driver to
easily get in and out of the driver’s seat.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and
the steering wheel will move up:
• When the driver's door is opened and theignition switch is in the OFF position.
• When the ignition switch is turned from ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open. The driver’s seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous position:
• When the ignition switch is turned to ACC
or ON while the shif t lever is in the P (Park)
position.
The entry/exit function can be adjusted or
canceled through the “Vehicle Settings” in
the vehicle information display by perform-
ing the following:
• Switch the Exit Seat Slide from ON to OFF.
• Switch the Exit Steering Up from ON to OFF.
