. Make sure the child’s head will be
properly supported by the booster seat
or vehicle seat. The seatback must be at
or above the center of the child’s ears.
For example, if a low back booster seat
*1is chosen, the vehicle seatback
must be at or above the center of the
child’s ears. If the seatback is lower
than the center of the child’s ears, a
high back booster seat
*2should be
used.

. If the booster seat is compatible with
your vehicle, place your child in the
booster seat and check the various
adjustments to be sure the booster
seat is compatible with your child.
Always follow all recommended proce-
dures.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated.
The instructions in this section apply to
booster seat installation in the rear seats
or the front passenger seat.

most position.
2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in a forward-facing direc-
tion. Always follow the booster seat
manufacturer’s instructions.
LRS0454
Front passenger position
3. The booster seat should be positioned
on the vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint or headrest to obtain the
correct booster seat fit. If the head
restraint or headrest is removed, store
it in a secure place. Be sure to reinstall
the head restraint or headrest when
the booster seat is removed. See“Head
restraints/headrests” (P.1-8) for head
restraint or headrest adjustment, re-
moval and installation information.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint or headrest and it is interfering with the proper
booster seat fit, try another seating
position or a different booster seat.
4. Position the lap portion of the seat belt low and snug on the child’s hips. Be
sure to follow the booster seat manu-
facturer’s instructions for adjusting the
seat belt routing.
5. Pull the shoulder belt portion of the seat belt toward the retractor to take up
extra slack. Be sure the shoulder belt is
positioned across the top, middle por-
tion of the child’s shoulder. Be sure to
follow the booster seat manufacturer’s
instructions for adjusting the seat belt
routing.
6. Follow the warnings, cautions and instructions for properly fastening a
seat belt shown in “Seat belts”(P.1-
12).

WARNING
.Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat belts,
this provides greater safety in the event
of an accident by helping to prevent
persons from being thrown from the
vehicle. This also helps keep children
and others from unintentionally opening
the doors, and will help keep out
intruders.
. Before opening any door, always look for
and avoid oncoming traffic.
. Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unat-
tended children could become involved
in serious accidents.

from the air bag if you are up against it
when it inflates. Always sit back against
the seatback and as far away as practical
from the steering wheel. Always use the

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s
seat and steering column will automati-
cally move when the shift 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 LOCK position.
The driver’s seat and steering wheel will
return to the previous positions when the
ignition switch is pushed to the ACC
position.
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 func-
tion
All the following conditions must be met
before cancelling or activating the entry/ exit function.
.
The ignition switch is placed in the
LOCK position.
. The entry/exit function is not in opera-
tion.

ated.
— Seat memory switches
— Power seat switches
— Electric tilting/telescopic steering
wheel switch
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. Note that the indicator lights
may illuminate after 5 seconds while
holding the SET switch. Keep the SET
switch pressed for more than 10 seconds
to turn on or off the entry/exit function.
The entry/exit function can also be acti-
vated or canceled if the [Lift Steering Wheel

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 switched
from the ON position to the LOCK position.

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 mem-
ory system.
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering col-umn and outside mirrors to the desired
positions by manually operating each
adjusting switch. For additional infor-
mation, see “Seats”(P.1-2),“Tilt/tele-
scopic steering” (P.3-24) and“Outside
mirrors” (P.3-27).
2. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, 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 approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the
switch.
When the memory is stored in the
memory switch (1 or 2), a buzzer will
sound.
If memory is stored in the same
memory switch, the previous memory
will be deleted.
Confirming memory storage
.
Push the ignition switch to the ON
position and push the SET switch. If
the main memory has not been stored,
the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 seconds. When the
memory has stored in position, the
indicator light will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds.
. If the battery cable is disconnected, or if
the fuse opens, the memory will be
canceled. In this case, reset the desired
position using the previous procedure.

Selecting the memorized position
1. Move the shift lever to the P (Park)position.
2. Push the memory switch (1 or 2) fully for at least 1 second.
The driver’s seat, steering column and
outside mirrors will move to the mem-
orized position with the indicator light
flashing, and then the light will stay on
for approximately 5 seconds.
Linking log-in function to a stored
memory position
The log-in function can be linked to a
stored memory position with the following
procedure.
1. Place the ignition switch in the ONposition while carrying an Intelligent
Key that was registered to the vehicle
with the log-in function. For more
details, see “Log-in function” (P.3-14).
2. Adjust the position of the driver’s seat, steering column and outside mirrors
manually. See “Seats”(P.1-2),“Tilt/
telescopic steering” (P.3-24) and“Out-
side mirrors” (P.3-27).
3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position. The next time you log in (selecting the user
on the display) after placing the ignition
switch in the ON position while carrying
the Intelligent Key, the system will auto-
matically adjust to the memorized driving
position.
SYSTEM OPERATION
The automatic drive positioner system will
not work or will stop operating under the
following conditions:

. When the adjusting switch for the
driver’s seat and steering column is
turned on while the automatic drive
positioner is operating.
. When the memory switch 1 or 2 is
pushed for less than 1 second.
. When the seat, steering column and
outside mirrors have already been
moved to the memorized position.
. When no position is stored in the
memory switch.
. When the shift lever is moved from the
P (Park) position to any other position.
(However, it will not be canceled if the
switch is pushed while the seat and
steering column are returning to the
previous positions (entry/exit func- tion).)
