DRIVING POSITION MEMORY
SYSTEM
The micro computer can memorize the position of the driver’s
seat, the height of the shoulder belt anchor of the driver’s seat
belt, and the positions of the tilt and telescopic steering, and
outside rear view mirrors. Two different driving position profiles
can be entered into the computer’s memory.
Recording a driving position in the computer’s memory can
only be done when the ignition key is in the “ON” position and
the shift lever is in the “P” position.
Setting a driving position
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, driver’s shoulder belt anchor,
tilt and telescopic steering and outside rear view mirrors
to the desired position.2. While pushing the “SET” button, push button “1” or “2”
until the signal beeps.
The beep sound means that the positions are recorded in the
computer’s memory.
By repeating these two steps and pressing the remaining
button, the driving position for another driver can be recorded.
To set a new memorized position, select the desired position
and perform step 2. The previous memory will be erased and
the new position will be set.
To make only slight changes to an already memorized position,
the easiest way is to first activate the memorized position, then
make the desired changes and perform step 2 above.
