The warning systems switch will turn on
and off the Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
system, the Blind Spot Warning (BSW)
system and the Forward Collision Warning
(FCW) system at the same time.
The LDW system will sound a warning
chime and blink the lane departure warn-
ing light (orange) to alert the driver if the
vehicle is traveling close to either the left
or the right of a traveling lane with
detectable lane markers. (See“Lane De-
parture Warning (LDW) system/Lane De-
parture Prevention (LDP) system” (P.5-19).)
The BSW system will illuminate the Blind
Spot Warning (BSW) indicator lights, lo- cated next to the outside mirrors, when the
radar sensors detect a vehicle in the
detection zone. If the turn signal is
activated in the direction of the detected
vehicle, a chime sounds twice and the BSW
indicator light will flash. (See
“Blind Spot
Warning (BSW) system” (P.5-27).)
The FCW system will sound a warning
chime and the vehicle ahead detection
indicator light blinks to alert the driver if
the vehicle is traveling close to the vehicle
ahead. (See “Forward Collision Warning
(FCW) system” (P.5-71).)
The warning systems switch is automati-
cally turned on when the engine is started,
and the warning systems ON indicator
*1
on the switch illuminates.
To cancel the warning systems, push the
warning systems switch to turn off the
system. The warning systems ON indicator
will turn off.
NOTE:
If you continue to push the warning
systems switch from off to on for over 4
seconds, a chime will sound. This will
change the default status of the LDW, BSW
and FCW systems to OFF so that these
systems will not automatically turn on when the engine is started. If this proce-
dure is repeated, the default status will
return to ON.

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 automati-
cally move when the automatic transmis-
sion 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 OFF position.

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. 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
The shift 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.

vated 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” settings. (See “Vehicle
