1-3 Massaging Lumbar (If Equipped)
Push the lumbar control, located on the outboard side of each
front seat, up for half a second to activate the massage
feature. The massage cycle will run for 10 minutes and can be
interrupted by pushing the lumbar control down briefly. The
lumbar support can be adjusted during the massage cycle by
moving the switch forward to increase support and rearward
to decrease support. The massage cycle will continue to run
even if the ignition is turned to OFF, unless interrupted.
Adaptive Seat Control (If Equipped)
The adaptive seat control is
located on the outboard side
of each front seat. Use the
power seat control first to
get the proper position.
With the ignition on, press the control up to activate the
adaptive seat. (The lumbar will automatically adjust to
your body's positioning for the duration of the trip in
four
-minute cycles.)To reshape the lower seatback, press the lumbar
control forward to increase support and rearward to
decrease support.
To turn off the adaptive seat feature, press the control
down. The seat will deflate when the adaptive seat
control or the ignition is turned off.
Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering
Wheel (Option)
The controls for these
features are located on the
driver's door panel, and are
used to program and recall
previous settings.
Adjust the driver's seat (including the lumbar and head
restraint adjustments), both the outside mirrors and
steering wheel to a comfortable position and then press
the MEMORY SET button. Within five seconds, press
button 1.

A second mirror, seating and steering wheel position may
be programmed by repeating the above steps and pressing
button ª2º. Each time a memory button is pressed, a single
beep will sound through the radio. Each time button 1 or 2
is pressed, the memory positions will be recalled. At the
factory, the exit position is preset with the steering wheel
full up and the seat full back. However, two personalized
exit positions can be set by first recalling the driving
position (Driver ª1º or ª2º), positioning the wheel and
seat in the desired exit positions and then pressing the
MEMORY SET button and, within five seconds, pressing
the EXIT button. The exit position for either previously set
driver can be recalled by pressing the EXIT button.
Heated Seats (Option)
This option is only available if your vehicle is equipped
with the power lumbar control feature.
The front seat controls are
located in the center
console. The rear seat
controls are located on the
rear door (note that only the
outboard positions in the
rear seats are heated).Push the button once for a high setting, twice for a low
setting, and a third time to turn off the heated seat. The
LO setting warms the seatback and cushion until the seat
approximates body temperature. The HI setting heats the
seat to a slightly higher temperature.
The heated seats can only be used when the ignition is
turned on. The heating elements in the seats
automatically turn off when the vehicle's ignition is
turned off.
Reclining Front Seatbacks
The reclining front seatback
controls are located on the
outboard side of each front
seat. Press the top of the
control forward or rearward
to adjust the seatback
angle. Push up or down to
adjust the headrest and

CAUTION:
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles) look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder before
changing lanes.
Curb View Assist Mirror (If Equipped)
If your vehicle is equipped with memory mirrors, it will
also be equipped with the curb view assist mirror
feature. This feature will cause the passenger's mirror to
tilt when the vehicle is in REVERSE (R). This feature is
especially useful in allowing you to view the curb when
you are parallel parking. If further adjustment is needed
after the mirror is tilted, the power mirror controls may
be used to adjust the mirror. If the mirror control is
pressed while the passenger's mirror is tilted, the mirror
will move in that direction, but will return to its original
position once the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (R)
and a five
-second delay has occurred.
To program the feature, see ªCurb View Assist Mirror
Programmingº in the Index.
Storage Compartments
Glove Box
The glove box is located in front of the passenger's seat.
To lock the glove box door, insert the master key into
the lock cylinder and turn it clockwise. Turn the key
counterclockwise to unlock the door.
Map Pocket
The map/storage pockets are located on each front door as
well as on the passenger's and driver's front seatbacks.

toll tickets.

mirror. Move the slide switch up or down to brighten or

-mode (analog/digital) cellular telephone. A fixed
mobile or a portable hand
-held system are available.
Either system has steering wheel telephone controls and

Center (DIC). Voice activation and hands
-free operation
are standard features. For more information, contact
