supplemental restraint system” section of
this manual, and “Tilt/Telescopic Steering”
and “Outside mirrors” in this section.
During this step, do not place the ignition
switch in any position other than ON.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds,
push the memory switch (1 or 2) .
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch.
After the indicator light goes off, the se-
lected positions are stored in the selected
memory (1 or 2) . A chime will sound if the
memory has been stored correctly (if so
equipped) .
If a new memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be deleted.
Linking a key fob to a stored memory
position
Each key fob can be linked to a stored memory
position (memory switch 1 or 2) with the follow-
ing procedure.
1. Follow the steps for storing a memory posi-
tion.2. While the indicator light for the memory
switch being set is illuminated for 5 sec-
onds, press the
button on the key fob.
The indicator light will blink. After the indica-
tor light goes off, the key fob is linked to that
memory setting.
With the ignition switch placed in the OFF posi-
tion, press the
button on the key fob. The
driver’s seat, steering wheel and outside mirrors
will move to the memorized position.
NOTE:
If a new memory position is saved to the
memory switch, the key fob automatically
re-links.
Reverse tilt-down feature (if so
equipped)
The reverse tilt-down feature will turn the se-
lected outside mirror surface downward to pro-
vide better rear visibility close to the vehicle.
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
turn the outside mirror control switch to the left or
right position. Only one mirror can be selected at
a time.
Move the shift lever to R (Reverse) . The selected
mirror will turn downward.
The selected mirror surface will return to its original
position when any of the following have occurred:
●The shift lever is moved to any position other
than R (Reverse) .
●The outside mirror control switch is set to the
neutral or center position.
●The ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.
NOTE:
If the outside mirror control switch is in the
neutral position, neither mirror will turn
downward when the shift lever is moved to
R (Reverse) .
Seat synchronization function
The seat synchronization function automatically
adjusts the positions of the steering wheel and
outside mirrors when the seat is adjusted using
the power seat switches.
However, the steering wheel and outside mirrors
will not move if the seat is adjusted over the
maximum thresholds. The system considers that
the steering wheel and outside mirror adjust-
ments are not necessary because the seat may
not be adjusted for the driving position. Note that
the function is set to disabled as the factory
default setting.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-37
Page 209 of 524

The seat synchronization function operates under
the following conditions:
●The ignition switch is in the ON position.
●The shift lever is in the P (Park) position.
If the outside mirrors or the steering wheel
reaches its maximum adjustment, the function is
automatically disabled. Restart the function by
selecting a previously stored seat memory posi-
tion using the memory switches (1 or 2) . An
Intelligent Key that was previously linked to the
stored seat memory can also be used to restart
the function.
If a seat position was not previously stored in the
seat memory, restart the function by adjusting the
steering wheel and outside mirrors manually for
your best driving position and then drive the
vehicle above 4 MPH (7 km/h).
Cancel or activate seat synchronization
function
The shift lever must be in the P (Park) position
with the ignition switch placed in the ACC posi-
tion.Confirming memory storage
●Place the ignition switch in the ON position
and push the SET switch. If the main memory
has not been stored, the indicator light will
come on for approximately 0.5 seconds.
When the memory has stored the position,
the indicator light will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds.
●If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the memory storage function will
be canceled and must be restarted before a
stored memory position can be set again.
Drive the vehicle over 25 MPH (40 km/h) to
restart the memory storage function. You
can also restart the memory storage function
using the following procedure.
1. Connect the battery cable or replace the
fuse.
2. Open and close the driver’s door more than
two times with the ignition switch in the
LOCK position.
Once the memory storage function has been
restarted, you can store a memory position.

●Within 45 seconds of opening the driver’s
door, push the memory switch (1 or 2) or
●Place the ignition switch in the ON position
and push the memory switch (1 or 2) .
The driver’s seat, steering column, and outside

stay on for approximately 5 seconds.
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver’s seat
and automatic operation steering column will au-
tomatically move when the shift lever is in the P
(Park) position. This allows the driver to get into
and out of the driver’s seat more easily.
The driver’s seat will slide backward and the
steering column will move up:
●When the driver’s door is opened with the
ignition switch placed in the LOCK position.
●When the ignition switch is turned from
ACC to LOCK with the driver’s door open.
