Front seats
CAUTION
Seat 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, 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 in the event of an acci-
dent.

Driving position memory (driver’s seat)
Your preferred driving position (the position of the driver's seat, steer-
ing wheel and outside rear view mirrors) can be memorized and
recalled with the touch of a button. It is also possible to set this func-
tion to activate automatically when the doors are unlocked.
Three different driving positions can be entered into memory.
Entering a position to memory
Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to IGNITION
ON mode.
Adjust the driver’s seat, steering wheel, and outside rear
view mirrors to the desired positions.
Push the “SET” button, then
within 3 seconds push button
“1”, “2” or “3” until the sig-
nal beeps.
If the selected button has
already been preset, the pre-
viously recorded position
will be overwritten.
Recalling the memorized position
Check that the shift lever is set in P.
Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to IGNITION
ON mode.
Push button “1”, “2” or “3”
to recall the memorized posi-
tion.

Linking driving position memory with door unlock operation
Record your driving position to button “1”, “2” or “3” before per-
forming the following.
Using the wireless remote control
Turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch OFF and close
the driver's door.
While pressing the desired but-
ton (“1”, “2” or “3”), push
on the wireless remote control
until the signal beeps.

door once after a driving position has been recorded. (If a door is
not opened within 30 seconds after is pressed, the doors will be
locked again and the alarm will automatically be set.)
In case that the alarm is triggered, immediately stop the alarm.
