■Recall procedure
1 Make sure that the doors are
locked before recalling the driving
position. Carry the electronic key
that has been registered to the driv-
ing position, and then unlock and
open the driver’s door using the
smart access system with push-but-
ton start or wireless remote control.
The driving position will move to the
recorded position (not including the steer-
ing wheel and head-up display [if
equipped]). However, the seat will move to
a position slightly behind the recorded
position in order to make entering the vehi-
cle easier.
If the driving position is in a position that
has already been recorded, the seat and
outside rear view mirrors will not move.
2Turn the engine switch to ACCES-
SORY mode or IGNITION ON
mode, or fasten a seat belt.
The seat, steering wheel and head-up dis-
play (if equipped) will move to the
recorded position.
■Recalling the driving position using the
memory recall function
●Different driving positions can be regis-
tered for each electronic key. Therefore,
the driving position that is recalled may
be different depending on the key being
carried.
●If a door other than the driver’s door is
unlocked with the smart access system
with push-button start, the driving posi-
tion cannot be recalled. In this case, press
the driving position button which has
been set.
■Customization
Some functions can be customized.

WARNING
●Do not stack cargo and luggage in the
luggage compartment higher than the
seatbacks.
●When you fold down the rear seats,
long items should not be placed
directly behind the front seats.
●Never allow anyone to ride in the lug-
gage compartment. It is not designed
for passengers. They should ride in
their seats with their seat belts prop-
erly fastened.
●Do not place cargo or luggage in or on
the following locations.
• At the feet of the driver
• On the front passenger or rear seats (when stacking items)
• On the luggage cover
• On the instrument panel
•On the dashboard
●Secure all items in the occupant com-
partment.
■Capacity and distribution
●Do not exceed the maximum axle
weight rating or the total vehicle
weight rating.
●Even if the total load of occupant’s
weight and the cargo load is less than
the total load capacity, do not apply the
load unevenly. Improper loading may
cause deterioration of steering or
braking control which may cause
death or serious injury.
■Roof luggage carrier precautions
Observe the following precautions:
●Place the cargo so that its weight is dis-
tributed evenly between the front and
rear axles.
●If loading long or wide cargo, never
exceed the vehicle overall length or
width. (
P.442)
●Before driving, make sure the cargo is
securely fastened on the roof luggage
carrier.
●Loading cargo on the roof luggage
carrier will make the center of gravity
of the vehicle higher. Avoid high
speeds, sudden starts, sharp turns,
sudden braking or abrupt maneuvers,
otherwise it may result in loss of con-
trol or vehicle rollover due to failure to
operate this vehicle correctly and
result in death or serious injury.
●If driving for a long distance, on rough
roads, or at high sp eeds, stop the vehi-
cle now and then during the trip to
make sure the cargo remains in its
place.
●Do not exceed 165 lb. (75 kg) cargo
weight on the roof luggage carrier.
NOTICE
■When loading cargo (vehicles with a
moon roof or panoramic moon roof)
Be careful not to scratch the surface of
the moon roof or panoramic moon roof.

select “AUTO” on the sub function
menu. ( P.296)
2 Press the outside/recirculated air
mode switch to switch to automatic
air intake mode. (if equipped)

switches between outside air and recircu-
lated air modes.
3Adjust the temperature setting.
4 To stop the operation, press the off
switch or select “OFF” on the sub
function menu. ( P.296)
If the fan speed settin g or air flow modes
are operated, the automatic mode indica-
tor goes off. However, automatic mode for
functions other than th at operated is main-
tained.
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically accord-
ing to the temperature setting and the
ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until
warm or cool air is ready to flow immedi-
ately after the automatic mode switch is
pressed or “AUTO” is selected.
Cool air may blow around the upper body
even when the heater is on due to sunlight.
■Automatic mode for air intake control (if
equipped)
In automatic mode, the system detects
exhaust gas and other pollutants and auto-
matically switches between outside air and
recirculated air modes.
When the dehumidification function is off,
and the fan is operating, turning automatic
mode on will activate the dehumidification
function.
This function automatically controls the
air conditioning airflo w so that priority
is given to the front seats. When the
front passenger seat is not occupied,
airflow may switch to only the driver's
seat. Unnecessary air conditioning is
suppressed, contributing to increased
fuel efficiency.
Front seat concentrated airflow mode
operates in the following situations.
 No passengers are detected in the
rear seats
 The windshield defogger is not
operating
 Pollen removal mode is not operat-
ing
While operating, illuminates.
