CAUTION
■Reclining adjustment
Do not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion, to
reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt.
If the seat is too reclined, during an accident the lap belt may slide past the hips and
apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen or your neck may contact the shoul-
der belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpectedly move
and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

Driving position memory system
Your preferred driving position (the position of the driver’s seat, steering
wheel and outside rear view mirrors) can be entered into the computer’s
memory and recalled with the touch of a button. It is also possible to set this
function to activate automatically when the doors are unlocked.
Three different driving positions can be entered into memory.
The same buttons are found on the front passenger’s side, allowing the
position of the front passen ger’s seat to be memorized.
■Entering a position to memory
Turn the “POWER” switch to ON mode.
Adjust the driver’s seat, steering wheel, and outside rear view
mirrors to the desired positions.
While pushing the “SET” but-
ton, or within 3 seconds after
the “SET” button is pushed,
push button “1”, “2” or “3”
until the signal beeps.
If the selected button has
already been preset, the previ-
ously recorded position will be
overwritten.
