Basic operation of Memory Profile System
In order for the system to be able to store or recall an individual's seat or
mirror position preferences, the Memory Profile must first recognize who
will be driving the vehicle. Drivers may identify themselves to the system
one of two ways:
²Pressing the unlock control on the appropriate remote transmitter key
(DRIVER MEMORY 1 or DRIVER MEMORY 2 is identified by the
number on the back of the remote transmitter) before opening the
driver's door.
²Entering either the DRIVER MEMORY 1 or DRIVER MEMORY 2
personalized code into the keyless entry keypad before opening the
driver's door. For information on programming personalized codes see
Keyless entry systemin theControl and featuressection.
Pressing OFF will turn the system off.
Instrumentation

Once the system has identified the driver (DRIVER MEMORY 1 or
DRIVER MEMORY 2), the seat and mirror will automatically begin to
move to that driver profile. Changes made to the seat or mirror positions
will automatically be saved to that profile.
If the driver should enter the vehicle without first identifying themselves,
all features will remain at their last setting or position and any settings
will be saved as vehicle settings not individualized settings.
If Driver 1 or Driver 2 wishes to
make temporary changes to their
seat or outside mirror positions
without affecting their preferred
positions they may do so by:
²Using the switch on the back of
the remote transmitter to turn
the Memory Profile System OFF
prior to pressing the unlock
control on the remote transmitter.
²Entering the vehicle without
identifying themselves using the
two methods listed above.
This option may be useful to temporarily reposition the driver's seat and
mirrors during an extended drive.

ILLUMINATED VISOR MIRROR
To turn on the LH visor mirror
lamps, lift the mirror cover. Adjust
the amount of light by sliding the
control.
To turn on the RH visor mirror
lamps, lift the mirror cover.
HOMELINKTUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver, located on the driver's visor,
provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held transmitters
with a single built-in device. This feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most current transmitters to operate garage doors, entry gates,
security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
When programming your HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver, to a
garage door or gate be sure that people and objects are out of
the way to prevent potential harm or damage.
Do not use the HomeLinktUniversal Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S.
federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet current
U.S. federal safety standards. For more information on this matter, call
toll-free: 1±800±355±3515 or on the Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.
