Driver Memory Seat — If Equipped

This feature allows the driver to store up to two different memory profiles for easy recall through a memory switch. Each memory profile contains desired position settings for the driver seat, side mirrors, and power tilt and telescopic steering column (if equipped) and a set of desired radio station presets. Your remote keyless entry key fob can also be programmed to recall the same positions when the unlock button is pushed.

NOTE: If your vehicle is equipped with two key fobs, one key fob can be linked to memory position 1 and the other key fob can be linked to memory position 2.

The memory seat switch is located on the driver’s door trim panel. The switch consists of three buttons: The set (S) button, which is used to activate the memory save func- tion, and the memory (1) and (2) buttons, which are used to recall either of two pre-programmed memory profiles.

Memory Position Recall

To recall the memory settings for driver 1, push memory button (1) on the driver’s door or the unlock button on the key fob linked to memory position 1.

NOTE: If the vehicle is equipped with Passive Entry, the memory settings will be recalled with a Passive Entry Unlock into the driver’s door using the key fob linked to position 1.

A recall can be cancelled by pushing any of the memory buttons (S, 1, or 2) on the driver’s door during a recall. When a recall is cancelled, the driver’s seat or power tilt

and telescopic steering column (if equipped) stop moving. A delay of one second will occur before another recall can be selected.

Easy Entry/Exit Seat

This feature provides automatic driver seat positioning to enhance driver mobility when entering and exiting the vehicle.

The distance the driver seat moves depends on where you have the driver seat positioned when you cycle the vehicle’s ignition to the OFF position.

When you cycle the vehicle’s ignition to the OFF posi- tion, the driver seat will move about 2.4 inches (60 mm) rearward if the driver seat position is greater than or equal to 2.7 inches (67.7 mm) forward of the rear stop. The seat will return to its previously set position when you cycle the vehicle’s ignition to the ACC or RUN position.

The Easy Entry/Easy Exit feature is disabled when the driver seat position is less than 0.9 of an inch (22.7 mm) forward of the rear stop. At this position, there is no benefit to the driver by moving the seat for Easy Exit or Easy Entry.

Each stored memory setting will have an associated Easy Entry and Easy Exit position.

NOTE: The Easy Entry/Exit feature is not enabled when the vehicle is delivered from the factory. The Easy Entry/Exit feature is enabled (or later disabled) through the programmable features in the Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia”.
