Memory Position Recall
NOTE:
• The vehicle must be in PARK to recall the memory
positions.
• Not all motors may be moved at one time. Refer to the
“Seats/Eight-Way Power Seat” in this section for fur-

pressing any one of the power seat buttons, pressing the
adjustable pedals button, or pressing either the LOCK or
UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter when not in the

NOTE: The capability to link RKE transmitters to
memory is enabled when delivered from the factory. The
capability to link RKE transmitters to memory can be
disabled (or later re-enabled) by an authorized dealer. For
vehicles equipped with the Electronic vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC), refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa tion Center (EVIC)/Customer-Programmable Features”
in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
Self-Limiting Control
The memory system includes a self-limiting control for
full travel positioning of power seat and adjustable pedal
movement (all directions). This self-limiting control may,
however, develop an unintended movement limitation if
an obstruction is encountered sometime during usage.
One example of such an occurrence may include a box or
package obstructing the full rearward movement of the
driver’s seat. Once the obstruction is removed, the self-
limiting control may store a new maximum position. the
self-limiting control may be reset by reaching the new
stored position, then press and release MEMORY button
1 or 2. Continued seat travel beyond the new stored
position will indicate the self-limiting control has been
reset. 3 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 137

Driver Easy Exit and Easy Entry Control
This additional feature provides automatic driver’s seat
positioning which will enhance driver mobility into and
out of the vehicle. The seat cushion will move rearward
approximately 2.5 in (60 mm) when the key is removed
from the ignition switch. The seat will move forward
approximately 2.5 in (60 mm) when the key is placed into
the ignition and turned out of the LOCK position. Each
stored memory setting will have an associated Easy Exit
and Easy Entry position. The Easy Exit and Easy Entry
feature may be automatically disabled if the seat is
positioned rearward enough and there is no benefit in
moving the seat any farther rearward.
NOTE: The Easy Entry/Easy Exit feature can be en-
abled or disabled through the programmable features in
the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC). Refer
to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/
Customer-Programmable Features” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further information. TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE HOOD
