●The engine will continue to run for 10 min-
utes. Repeat the steps to extend the time for
an additional 10 minutes. For additional in-
formation, refer to “Extending engine run
time” in this section.
Depress and hold the brake then press the push-

ing the vehicle” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion of this manual.
EXTENDING ENGINE RUN TIME
The remote start feature can be extended one
time by performing the steps listed in “Remote
starting the vehicle” in this section. Run time will
be calculated as follows: ● The first 10 minute run time will start when
the remote start function is performed.
● The second 10 minutes will start immedi-
ately when the remote start function is per-
formed again. For example, if the engine has
been running for 5 minutes, and 10 minutes
are added, the engine will run for a total of
15 minutes.
● Extending engine run time will bring you to
the two remote start limit. A maximum of two remote starts, or a single start
with an extension, are allowed between ignition
cycles.
The ignition switch must be cycled to the ON
position and then back to the OFF position be-
fore the remote start procedure can be used
again.

TILT AND TELESCOPIC OPERATION
To adjust the steering wheel move the switch1
in the following directions:● Adjust the steering wheel up or down in
direction
2to the desired tilt position.
● Adjust the steering wheel forward or back-
ward in direction
3to the desired tele-
scopic position.
CAUTION
For vehicles with automatic drive posi-
tioner: Failure to reset the tilt and tele-
scoping functions of the steering wheel,
after the vehicle’s battery has been dis-
charged, may prevent the steering wheel
position from being adjusted.
For vehicles with automatic drive positioner: Both
the tilt and telescopic steering operation must be
reset after the vehicle’s battery has been dis-
charged in order to prevent the tilt and telescopic
operation from locking in one position. When the
battery has been recharged or replaced, perform
the following: ● For tilt operation: Adjust the switch
1so
the steering wheel moves to the highest
position
2that can be reached.
● For telescopic operation: Adjust the switch
1so the steering wheel moves to the most
forward and backward position
3that can
be reached.
Performing these operations resets the range of
the steering wheel’s tilt and telescopic function.
Entry/Exit function (if so equipped)
The automatic drive positioner system will make
the steering wheel move up automatically when
the driver’s door is opened and the ignition
switch is in the LOCK position. This lets the driver
get into and out of the seat more easily. The
steering wheel moves back into position when
the driver’s door is closed and the ignition switch
is pushed.
