The message center will display theMemory Profile Systemfeatures
(operator selectable features) which are selected from the MENU and
VEHICLE HANDLING controls.
The Memory Profile System allows for two primary drivers to save their
individual seat and outside rearview mirror position preferences. The
feature will then be set to the remote entry transmitter, that will
automatically recall the saved individualized preferences. Refer toBasic
Operation of Memory Profile Systemin this section.
Basic operation of Memory Profile System
In order for the system to be able to store or recall an individual's seat
and 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 (Memory position 1 or
Memory position 2 is identified by
the number on the back of the
remote transmitter) before
opening the driver's door.
²Entering either the Personality 1
or Personality 2 personalized
code into the keyless entry
keypad before opening the
driver's door.
For information on programming
personalized codes seeRemote and
Keyless entry systemsin theLocks and Securitysection.
Once the system has identified the driver (Memory position 1 or Memory
position 2), the seat and mirror will automatically begin to move to that
driver profile. Changes made to the seat and 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 to the vehicle not individualized settings.

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
or unlocking the vehicle with the
key.
²Entering the vehicle without
