The vehicle should be driven with the VDC
system on for most driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the
VDC system reduces the engine output to
reduce wheel spin. The engine speed will
be reduced even if the accelerator is de-
pressed to the floor. If maximum engine
power is needed to free a stuck vehicle,
turn the VDC system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC
OFF switch. The
indicator light and
the Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)
system warning light will come on. Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart
the engine to turn on the system. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Vehicle Dy-
namic Control (VDC) system” in the “Start-
ing and driving” section of this manual.
WARNING
∙ Never rely solely on the hill descent
control system to control vehicle
speed when driving on steep downhill
grades. Always drive carefully when
using the hill descent control system
and decelerate the vehicle speed by
depressing the brake pedal if neces-
sary. Be especially careful when driv-
ing on frozen, muddy or extremely
steep downhill roads. Failure to con-
trol vehicle speed may result in a loss
of control of the vehicle and possible
serious injury or death.

3-32Pre-driving checks and adjustments

WARNING
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel whiledriving. You could lose control of your
vehicle and cause an accident.
∙ Do not adjust the steering wheel any closer to you than is necessary for
proper steering operation and com-
fort. 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.
MANUAL OPERATION (if so
equipped)
Tilt and telescopic operation
Pull the lock lever1down:
∙ Adjust the steering wheel up or down in direction
2to the desired position.
∙ Adjust the steering wheel forward or backward in direction
3to the desired
position.
Push the lock lever
1up firmly to lock the
steering wheel in place.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION (if so
equipped)
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.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-33

CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and tele-
scoping functions of the steering
wheel, af ter the vehicle’s battery has
been discharged, may prevent the
steering wheel position from being
adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Both the tilt and telescopic steering
operation must be reset af ter the vehicle’s
battery has been discharged in order to
prevent the tilt and telescopic operation
from locking in one position. When the bat-
tery has been recharged or replaced, per-
form the following: ∙ For tilt operation, adjust the switch
1
so 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 po-
sition
3that can be reached.
Performing these operations resets the
range of the steering wheel’s tilt and tele-
scopic function.
Entry/Exit function (if so
equipped)
The automatic drive positioner system (if
so equipped) will make the steering wheel
move up automatically when the driver’s
door is opened and the ignition switch is in
the LOCK position. This lets the driver get
into and out of the seat more easily. The
steering wheel moves back into position
when the driver’s door is closed and the
ignition switch is pushed.
For additional information, refer to “Auto-
matic drive positioner” in this section.

NOTE:
If the outside mirror control switch is in
the center position, the mirror surface
will NOT turn downward when the shif t
lever is moved to R (Reverse).
For additional information, refer to “Auto-
matic drive positioner” in this section.The automatic drive positioner system has
two features:
∙ Memory storage function
∙ Entry/exit function
MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION
Two positions for the driver’s seat, outside
mirrors and steering wheel (if so equipped)
can be stored in the automatic drive posi-
tioner memory. Follow these procedures to
use the memory system.
NOTE:
The vehicle should be stopped while set-
ting the memory.
LPD2508
AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONER (if so
equipped)
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-39

1. Adjust the driver’s seat, outside mirrorsand steering wheel (if so equipped) to
the desired positions by manually oper-
ating each adjusting switch. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Seats” in the
“Safety—Seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system” section of this
manual and “Outside mirrors” in this
section.
2. Push the SET switch and, within 5 sec- onds, push the memory switch (1 or 2).
The indicator light for the pushed
memory switch will come on and stay
on for approximately 5 seconds.
The chime will sound when the memory is
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 in
the 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 1-2 in the “Memory storage function” section for storing the
memory position.
2. While the indicator light is on, press the
button on the key fob. The
hazard lights will flash twice. The indi-
cator light of the linked memory switch
will blink and click twice. Af ter the indi-
cator 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
but-
ton 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 previous position.
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat, steering column and steering wheel
(if so equipped) will automatically move
when the shif t lever is in the P (Park) posi-
tion. 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 column will move up:
∙ When the ignition is switched to OFF and the driver’s door is opened.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous position: ∙ When the ignition is switched to ON.
