3-3. Adjusting the seats

WARNING

Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not recline the seat

more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint forces

directly to the abdomen, or your neck may contact the shoulder belt, increasing the risk

of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpectedly move and

cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.

When the seatback is folded

Do not sit on or place anything on the seatback while driving.

Be sure to install the seat hook covers on the seat hooks, or you may get burned when

they become hot.

When returning the seatbacks to their original position
Observe the following precautions. Failure to  do  so  may  result  in  death  or  serious

injury.

Be careful not to get your hands or feet pinched in the seat.

Make sure the seats are securely locked. Failure to do so will prevent the seat belt

from operating properly.

Check that the seat belts are not twisted or caught under the seat.

Arrange the seat belts in the proper positions for ready use.

Avoiding damage to seat components
Do not hang or attach anything on the seatback striker.

NOTICE

Before tumbling, folding up the seats
The seat belts and buckles must be stowed.

After returning the third seat (if equipped)
Make sure that the handle on the rear of the seatback has been secured.

performed, the driver’s seat and steer-
ing wheel are automatically adjusted to
a position that allows driver to enter
and exit the vehicle easily.

• The shift lever has been shifted to P.
• The engine switch has been turned

already close to the rearmost position, etc.

Customization
The seat movement amount settings of the power easy access system can be custom-

ized. (Customizable features: 

P. 584)

This feature automatically adjusts the driver’s seats, steering wheel and out-

3-3. Adjusting the seats

Your preferred driving position (the position of the driver’s seat, steering wheel,
outside rear view mirrors and HUD [head-up display] [if equipped]) can be
entered into the computer’s memory and recalled with the touch of a button. It is
also possible to set this function to activate automatically when the doors are
unlocked.
Three different driving positions can be recorded into memory.

Recording procedure

Turn the engine switch to IGNITION ON mode.
Adjust the driver’s seat, steering wheel, outside rear view mirrors and HUD
(head-up display) (if equipped) to the desired positions.
While pressing the “SET” button,
or within 3 seconds after the
“SET” button is pressed, press
button “1”, “2” or “3” until the
buzzer sounds.

If the selected button has already

been preset, the previously recorded

position will be overwritten.

Turn the engine switch to IGNITION ON mode.
Press one of the buttons for the

opened and another 60 seconds after it is closed again. 

If the battery is disconnected
The memorized positions must be reset because the computer’s memory is erased when

the battery is disconnected.

Each electronic key can be registered to recall your preferred driving position.

Registering procedure
Record your driving position to button “1”, “2” or “3” before performing the
following: 
Carry only the key you want to register, and then close the driver’s door. 
If 2 or more keys are in the vehicle, the driving position cannot be recorded
properly. 

Check that the shift lever is in P.
Turn the engine switch to IGNITION ON mode.
Recall the driving position that you want to record.
While pressing the recalled but-
ton, press and hold the door lock
switch (either lock or unlock) until

Make sure that the doors are locked before recalling the driving position.
Carry the electronic key that has been registered to the driving position,
and then unlock and open the driver’s door using the smart access system
with push-button start or wireless remote control.

The driving position will move to the recorded position (not including the steering

wheel and HUD [head-up display] [if equipped]). However, the seat will move to a

position slightly behind the recorded position in order to make entering the vehicle

easier.
If the driving position is in a position that has already been recorded, the seat and

outside rear view mirrors will not move.

Turn the engine switch to ACCESSORY mode or IGNITION ON mode,
or fasten a seat belt.

properly.

Turn the engine switch to IGNITION ON mode.
While pressing the “SET” button, press and hold the door lock switch
(either lock or unlock) until the buzzer sounds twice.

If the button could not be canceled, the buzzer sounds continuously for approxi-

mately 3 seconds.

Recalling the driving position using the memory recall function

Different driving positions can be registered for each electronic key. Therefore, the

driving position that is recalled may be different depending on the key being carried.

If a door other than the driver’s door is unlocked with the smart access system with

push-button start, the driving position cannot be recalled. In this case, press the driving

position button which has been set.

Setting automatic mode
Automatic mode allows the folding or extending of the mirrors to be linked to
locking/unlocking of the doors.
Press the “AUTO” switch to set auto-
matic mode.

The indicator will come on.
Pressing the switch once more will

return to manual mode.

When either “L” or “R” of the mirror select switch is selected, the outside rear
view mirrors will automatically angle downwards when the vehicle is reversing in
order to give a better view of the ground.
To disable this function, select neither “L” nor “R”.

Adjusting the mirror angle when the vehicle is reversing
With the shift lever in R, adjust the mirror angle at a desired position. The
adjusted angle will be memorized and the mirror will automatically tilt to the
memorized angle whenever the shift lever is shifted to R from next time.

The memorized downward tilt position of the mirror is linked to the normal position

(angle adjusted with the shift lever in other than R). Therefore, if the normal posi-

tion is changed after adjustment, the tilt position will also change.
When the normal position is changed, readjust the angle in reversing.

Mirror angle can be adjusted when
The engine switch is in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode.

When the mirrors are fogged up
The outside rear view mirrors can be cleared using the mirror defoggers. Turn on the

rear window defogger to turn on the outside rear view mirror defoggers. (

P. 411)

Automatic adjustment of the mirror angle 
A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and recalled automatically by the

driving position memory. (

When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to automatic mode, the outside rear

view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare inside rear view mirror to

reduce reflected light. (

3-4. Adjusting the steering wheel and mirrors

Using automatic mode in cold weather
When  automatic  mode  is  used  in  cold  weather,  the  door  mirror  could  freeze  up  and

automatic stowing and return may not be possible. In this event, remove any ice and snow

from the door mirror, then either operate the mirror using manual mode or move the mir-

ror by hand.

WARNING

Important points while driving
Observe the following precautions while driving.

Failing to do so may result in loss of control of the vehicle and cause an accident, result-

ing in death or serious injury.

Do not adjust the mirrors while driving.

Do not drive with the mirrors folded.

Both the driver and passenger side mirrors must be extended and properly adjusted

before driving.

When a mirror is moving
To avoid personal injury and mirror malfunction, be careful not to get your hand caught

by the moving mirror.

When the mirror defoggers are operating
Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces, as they can become very hot and burn you. 

NOTICE

If ice should jam the mirror
Do not operate the control or scrape the mirror face. Use a spray de-icer to free the

mirror.
