1-4 Memory Seat and Mirrors (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has this
feature, the controls on
the driver's door panel
are used to program and
recall previous settings.
You can use this feature to save your driver's seat
position, lumbar adjustment, outside mirror positions,
personalization features, comfort controls and
radio settings.Adjust the driver's seat (including the lumbar
adjustments) and both outside mirrors to the position
you would like for driving. Then press and hold memory
button 1 for more than three seconds. A double beep
will sound when the memory is set.
To set the seat and mirror positions for a second driver,
follow the previous steps, but press button 2 instead.
You can also store an exit position for each driver. The
exit position is programmed by moving the seat to the
desired exit position and then holding the exit button for
more than three seconds. The exit position set will be for
the most recently selected driving position (1 or 2).
Please note that mirror and lumbar positions will not be
stored or recalled for the exit position.

2-22 Key Reminder Warning
If you leave your key in the LOCK ignition position,
you will hear a warning chime when you open the
driver's door.
Always leave your key in LOCK. If you leave it in any
other position, you will drain the battery power.
Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
After you turn the ignition off and remove the key, you
will still have electrical power to accessories such as the
power windows, audio steering wheel controls, clock,
sunroof (option), accessory power outlet and the radio
for up to 10 minutes. The instrument panel cluster lights
will stay on for a few seconds, then go out. Once you
open a door, the power will shut off.
Starting Your Engine
Move your shift lever to PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).
Your engine won't start in any other position
-- that's
a safety feature. To restart when you're already moving,
use NEUTRAL (N) only.
NOTICE:
Don't try to shift to PARK (P) if your vehicle is
moving. If you do, you could damage the
transaxle. Shift to PARK (P) only when your
vehicle is stopped.

The DIC is used to program the personal choices of
two drivers. The drivers are recognized as DRIVER 1
and DRIVER 2. You will let the DIC and the vehicle
know which driver you are by using your remote lock
control transmitter or by pressing the appropriate
memory seat control button located on the driver's door
or choosing the driver with the DIC. Each remote lock
control transmitter was pre
-programmed to belong to
DRIVER 1 or DRIVER 2. The personalization features
may be programmed differently for each driver.
When you press the unlock symbol on the transmitter,
the DIC will automatically change driver numbers and the
vehicle will recall the personal choice settings that were
last made to correspond to your transmitter, including
your radio and comfort control settings. See ªComfort
Controls, Personalizationº in the Index.
If you unlock the vehicle using your door key instead
of your transmitter, the personal choice settings will
correspond to the previous driver of the vehicle as
identified by a transmitter, a memory seat control or
through the DIC. If this happens and you were not
the last driver of the vehicle, press your correct driver
number on the memory seat controls, press the
unlock symbol on your transmitter or select the
personalization programming mode and choose the
correct driver number.After you have the correct driver number on the display
use the SELECT down arrow button to scroll through

3-24 Theft-Deterrent Feature
THEFTLOCK
is designed to discourage theft of
your radio. It works by using a secret code to disable
all radio functions whenever battery power is removed
and the radio is placed in a different vehicle. This
feature requires no user input to be activated. It is
automatically armed when it is put into the vehicle for
the first time.
When the radio is turned off, the blinking red light
indicates that THEFTLOCK is armed.
If THEFTLOCK is activated, your radio will not operate
if stolen. The radio will display LOC and a red LED
indicator light will come on above the THEFTLOCK
logo to indicate a locked condition. If this occurs,
the radio will have to be returned to the dealer.
Audio Steering Wheel Controls
With this feature, you can control certain radio functions
using the buttons on your steering wheel.
Some steering wheel
controls operate climate
controls. See ªSteering
Wheel Controls for
Climate Controlº earlier
in this section.
VOL: Press the up or down arrow to increase or
decrease volume.
SEEK: Press this button to tune to the next strong
radio station. When playing a cassette tape or compact
disc, press SEEK to hear the next selection. There must
be at least a three
-second gap between selections on a
cassette tape.
PROG: Press this button to tune in the next preset
radio station. When playing a cassette tape, press PROG
to hear the other side of a tape that is playing. When
listening to a disc in the CD changer, press PROG to
select the next loaded disc.
