AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONER (if so equipped)

Reverse tilt-down feature (if so equipped)

The reverse tilt-down feature will turn both outside mirror surfaces downward to provide better rear visibility close to the vehicle when the mirror control switch is in either the L or R position.

The mirrors automatically return to their original position when you shift out of R (Reverse).

The outside mirror surfaces will return to their original position when one of the following conditions has 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 Center position, the mirror surface will NOT turn downward when the shift lever is moved to R (Reverse).

For additional information, refer to “Automatic drive positioner” in this section.

The automatic drive positioner system has two features:

● Memory storage function

● Entry/exit function

LPD2113

MEMORY STORAGE FUNCTION

Two positions for the driver’s seat, steering column (if so equipped), and outside mirrors can be stored in the automatic drive positioner memory. Follow these procedures to use the memory system.

1. Place the ignition in the ON or ACC position (the vehicle should be stopped while setting the memory).

2. Adjust the driver’s seat, steering column (if so equipped), and outside mirrors to the desired positions by manually operating each adjusting switch. For additional information, refer to “Seats” in the “Safety— Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint

system” section of this manual, and “Tilt/Telescopic Steering” and “Outside mirrors” in this section.

3. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds, push the memory switch (1 or 2).

4. The indicator light for the pushed memory switch will come ON and stay ON for approximately 5 seconds.

5. The chime will sound if the memory has been stored.

NOTE:

If a NEW memory position is stored in the same memory switch, the previous memory position will be overwritten by the new stored position.

Confirming memory storage

Push the SET switch.

● If a memory position has not been stored in the switch (1 or 2) the indicator light for the respective switch will come ON for approximately 0.5 seconds.

● If a memory position has been stored in the switch (1 or 2) then the indicator light for the respective switch will stay ON for approximately 5 seconds.

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 following procedure.

1. Follow steps 1-3 in the “Memory Storage Function” section for storing the memory position.

2. The indicator light for the pushed memory switch will come ON. While the indicator

light is ON for 5 seconds, press the button on the key fob. The indicator light of the linked memory switch will blink. After the indicator light goes off, the key fob is linked to that memory setting.

Once it is linked, when ignition switch is placed in the OFF position, pressing the

the key fob will move the driver’s seat, steering wheel and outside mirrors to the linked memory switch position.

NOTE:

If a NEW memory position is stored in the linked memory switch, then the key fob will link the NEW position and overwrites the previous position.

ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION

This system is designed so that the driver’s seat and automatic operation steering column will automatically 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 OFF position.

● When the ignition switch is turned from ACC to OFF with the driver’s door open.

The driver’s seat and steering wheel will return to the previous position:

● When the ignition switch is turned into ACC or ON while the shift lever is in the P (Park) position.

The entry/exit function can be adjusted or canceled through the Vehicle Settings in the vehicle information display by performing the following:

● Switch the Exit Seat Slide from ON to OFF.

● Switch the Exit Steering UP from ON to

OFF.

Restarting the entry/exit function

If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the fuse opens, the stored memory positions will be lost and some of the functions will be restricted:

1. Drive the vehicle over 25 MPH (40 km/h).

2. Open and close the driver’s door more than two times with the ignition switch in the OFF position.

The entry/exit function should now work properly.

SETTING MEMORY FUNCTION

The position of the following settings can be linked to the Intelligent Key and the memorized settings can be available for each Intelligent Key.

● Climate control system

● Navigation system (if so equipped)

● Audio system

To use the memory function, set the climate, navigation and audio systems to the driver’s preferred settings. Lock the doors with the Intelligent Key. Each Intelligent Key may be set with the driver’s individual preferences. When a new Intelligent Key is used, “Connection with the key has been done” will be displayed on the screen and the memorized settings are available.

To engage the memorized settings, perform the following:

1. Carry the Intelligent Key that is linked to the memorized settings.

2. Unlock the doors by pushing the driver’s door handle request switch or the

UNLOCK Key.

3. Place the ignition switch in the “ON” position. The settings linked to the Intelligent Key will start.

For additional information, refer to “Heater and air conditioner (automatic)” in the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems” section of this manual.

For additional information on using the Navigation System, refer to the separate Navigation System Owner’s Manual.

For additional information on using the Audio system, refer to “Audio system” in the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems” section of this manual.

SYSTEM OPERATION

The automatic drive positioner system will not work or will stop operating under the following conditions:

● When the vehicle speed is above 4 MPH (7 km/h).

● When any of the memory switches are pushed while the automatic drive positioner is operating.

● When the adjusting switch for the driver’s seat is turned on while the automatic drive positioner is operating.

● When the seat has already been moved to the memorized position.

● When no seat position is stored in the memory switch.

● When the shift lever is moved from P (Park) to any other position.

SEATS

● Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so full attention may be given to vehicle operation. The seat may move suddenly and could cause loss of control of the vehicle.

● The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort. Seat belts are most effective when the passenger sits well back and straight up in the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.

WARNING

● Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be against your body. In an accident, you could be thrown into it and receive neck or other serious injuries. You could also slide under the lap belt and receive serious internal injuries.

● For the most effective protection when the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be upright. Always sit well back in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the seat properly. For additional information, refer to “Precautions on seat belt usage” in this section.

● After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.

● Do not leave children unattended inside the vehicle. They could unknowingly activate switches or controls. Unattended children could become involved in serious accidents.
