Seats and Seat Controls
This section tells you about the power seats -- how to
adjust them, and also about reclining front seatbacks,
lumbar adjustments, heated seats and head restraints.
Power Seats
The power seat controls
are located on the
outboard sides of the
front seat cushions.

Move the front of the seat control up or down to
adjust the front portion of the cushion.

Move the rear of the seat control up or down to
adjust the rear portion of the cushion.

Lift up or push down on the center of the seat control
to move the entire seat up or down.

To move the seat forward or rearward, slide the seat
control forward or rearward.
Four-Way Power Lumbar Control
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this
feature, the driver's and
passenger's seatback lumbar
support controls are located
on the outboard sides of
the seats.
Use the power seat controls first to get the proper
position, then continue with the lumbar adjustment.
To reshape the lower seatback, press the lumbar control
forward to increase support and rearward to decrease
support. Press the control up or down to raise or lower
the support mechanism.
Keep in mind that as your seating position changes, as it
may during long trips, so should the position of your
lumbar support. Adjust the seat as needed.

1-3 Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering
Wheel (Option)
The controls for these
features are located on
the driver's door panel.These buttons are used to program and recall memory
settings for the driver's seating and outside rearview
mirror positions. Use the following steps to program
each button:
1. Adjust the driver's seat (including the seatback
recliner, lumbar, head restraint and shoulder belt
height adjustments), both outside mirrors and the
steering wheel to a comfortable position.
2. Press the SET button.
3. Within five seconds, press button 1 for Driver 1.
A single beep will sound through the driver's side
front speaker to let you know that the position has
been stored.

1-4
A second mirror, seating and steering wheel position
can be programmed by repeating the above steps and
pressing button 2 (for driver 2). Each time a memory
button is pressed, a single beep will sound. Each time
button 1 or 2 is pressed and released while the vehicle is
in PARK (P), the memory positions will be recalled. If
the vehicle is not in PARK (P), the memory buttons
must be pressed and held to recall the stored positions.
If you use the remote keyless entry transmitter to enter
your vehicle, automatic seat and mirror movement will
occur. The numbers on the back of the transmitters,
1 and 2, correspond to the numbers on the buttons on
the door panel.
When the key is placed in the ignition in OFF if you
have entered the vehicle without using the remote
keyless entry transmitter, the seats and mirrors will
automatically adjust to the programmed position of
the last driver.
To stop recall movement of the memory feature at
any time, press one of the power seat controls or
memory buttons.Two personalized exit positions can be set by first
recalling the driving position (by pressing 1 or 2), then
positioning the steering wheel and seat in the desired
exit positions and then pressing and releasing the
MEMORY SET button and, within five seconds,
pressing the EXIT button. With the vehicle in
PARK (P), the exit position for the previously set
driver can be recalled by pressing the EXIT button.
The mirrors, power lumbar and shoulder belt height
positions will not be stored or recalled for the
exit positions.
Further programming for automatic seat and mirror
movement can be done using the Driver Information
Center (DIC). You can select or not select the following:

Automatic seat and mirror movement when the
vehicle is unlocked with the remote keyless entry
transmitter, or

automatic seat and mirror movement when a key is
placed in the ignition.

Programming and Personalization Featuresº in
