DRIVING POSITION MEMORY
SYSTEM
The micro computer can memorize the position of the driver’s seat,
the height of the shoulder belt anchor of the driver’s seat belt, and the
positions of the tilt and telescopic steering, and outside rear view
mirrors. Two different driving position profiles can be entered into
the computer’s memory.
Recording a driving position in the computer’s memory can only be
done when the ignition key is in the ”ON” position and the shift lever
is in the ”P” position.

8. Reinstall all the wheel nuts finger tight.
Align the holes in the wheel with the bolts. Then lift up the wheel
and get at least the top bolt started through its hole. Wiggle the tire
and press it back over the other bolts.
Reinstall the wheel nuts and tighten them as much as you can by
hand. Press the tire back and see if you can tighten them more.

9. Lower the vehicle completely and tighten the wheel nuts.
Turn the jack handle counterclockwise to lower the vehicle.
Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten the nuts. Do not use other
tools or any additional leverage other than your hands, such as a
hammer, pipe or your foot. Make sure the wrench is securely
engaged over the nut.
Tighten each nut a little at a time in the order shown. Repeat the
process until all the nuts are tight.
CAUTION
When lowering the vehicle, make sure all portions of your
body and all other persons around will not be injured as the
vehicle is lowered to the ground.
As soon as possible after changing wheels, have the wheel
nuts tightened by torque wrench at 103 N·m (10.5 kgf·m, 76
ft·lbf.).
