4. The selected outside mirror surfacemoves downward.
When one of the following conditions has oc-
curred, the selected outside mirror surface will
return to its original position.
●The selector lever is moved to any position
other than R (Reverse).
● The outside mirror control switch is set to
the center position.
● The ignition switch is pushed to the OFF
position.
VANITY MIRROR
To use the front vanity mirror, pull down the sun
visor and pull up the cover. The automatic drive positioner system has three
features:
●
Entry/exit function
● Seat synchronization function
● Memory storage
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s seat
and steering column will automatically move
when the automatic transmission selector lever
is in the P (Park) position. This allows the driver
to get into and out of the driver’s seat more
easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering wheel will move up when the driver’s
door is opened with the ignition switch in the
OFF position.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will return
to the previous positions when one of the
following is operated:
●When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ACC position after the driver’s door is
closed.
● When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position.
● When the Intelligent Key is inserted into the
port after the driver’s door is closed.

3-24Pre-driving checks and adjustments

The driver’s seat will not return to the previous
positions if the seat or steering adjusting
switch is operated when the seat is at the exit
position.
Cancel or activate entry/exit function
The selector lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the OFF
position.
The entry/exit function can be activated or
canceled by pressing and holding the SET
switch for more than 10 seconds.
The indicator lights on the memory switches (1
and 2) will blink once when the function is
canceled, and the indicator lights will blink
twice when the function is activated.
The entry/exit function can also be activated or
canceled if the “Lift Steering Wheel on Exit” key
or “Slide Driver Seat Back on Exit” key is turned
to ON or OFF in the “Comfort & Conv.” settings.
(See “VEHICLE INFORMATION AND SETTINGS” in
the “4. Monitor, climate, audio, phone and
voice recognition systems” section.)
Initialize entry/exit function
If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the entry/exit function will not work
though this function was set on before. In such
a case, after connecting the battery or replacing
with a new fuse, open and close the driver’s
door more than two times after the ignition
switch is turned from the ON position to the
LOCK position. The entry/exit function will be
activated.
SEAT SYNCHRONIZATION FUNCTION
The seat synchronization function automatically
adjusts the positions of the steering wheel and
outside mirrors when the seat is adjusted using
the power seat switches.
However, the steering wheel and outside mir-
rors will not move if the seat is adjusted over
the maximum thresholds. The system considers
that the steering wheel and outside mirror
adjustments are not necessary because the
seat may not be adjusted for the driving posi-
tion. Note that the function is set to disabled as
the factory default setting.
SPA2469
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-25

The seat synchronization function operates un-
der the following conditions:
●The ignition switch is in the ON position.
● The selector lever is in the P (Park) position.
If the outside mirrors or the steering wheel
reaches its maximum adjustment, the function
is automatically disabled. Restart the function
by selecting a previously stored seat memory
position using the memory switches (1 or 2). An
Intelligent Key that was previously linked to the
stored seat memory can also be used to restart
the function.
If a seat position was not previously stored in
the seat memory, restart the function by adjust-
ing the steering wheel and outside mirrors
manually for your best driving position and then
drive the vehicle above 4 MPH (7 km/h).
Cancel or activate seat
synchronization function
The selector lever must be in the P (Park)
position with the ignition switch in the ACC
position.
The seat synchronization function can be acti-
vated or canceled by pushing and holding the
SET switch for more than 10 seconds while the
ignition switch is in the ACC position. The indicator lights on the memory switches
(1 and 2) will blink once when the function is
canceled, and the indicator lights will blink
twice when the function is activated.
MEMORY STORAGE
Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering
column and outside mirrors can be stored in the
automatic drive positioner memory. Follow
these procedures to use the memory system.
1. Move the selector lever to the P (Park)
position.
2. Push the ignition switch to the ON posi- tion.
3. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors to the desired posi-
tions by manually operating each adjust-
ing switch. For additional information, see
“SEATS” in the “1. Safety — Seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system”
section and “TILT/TELESCOPIC COLUMN”
page 3-19 and “OUTSIDE MIRRORS” ear-
lier in this section. 4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 sec-
onds, push the memory switch (1 or 2)
fully for at least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will stay on for approximately 5 sec-
onds after pushing the switch.
If memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be deleted.
Linking Intelligent Key to a stored
memory position
The Intelligent Key can be linked to a stored
memory position with the following procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memoryposition.
2. While the indicator light for the memory switch being set is illuminated for 5 sec-
onds, push the UNLOCK
