Driver memory seat if equipped
Driver memory seats allow the driver to recall settings for the adjustable pedals, mirrors, seats and the radio presets using the key fob. The memory seat buttons are located on the outboard side of the drivers seat cushion.
The memory buttons 1 and 2 can be programmed to recall the driver’s seat position, driver’s outside mirror position, adjustable brake, accelerator pedals position, Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) temperature set- ting and radio station preset settings. Your Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitters can also be pro- grammed to recall the same positions when the UN- LOCK button is pressed.
Memory Seat Buttons
NOTE: The power lumbar option is not programmable with driver memory seats. Your vehicle was delivered with two RKE transmitters. One or both RKE transmitters can be linked to either memory position. The memory system can accommodate up to two RKE transmitters, each RKE transmitter linked to either of the two memory positions.
Setting Memory Positions And Linking RKE Transmitter To Memory
NOTE: Each time the S (SET) button and a numbered button (1 or 2) are pressed, you erase the memory settings for that button and store new settings.
1. Turn the vehicle key to the ON/RUN position.
2. Adjust the driver’s seat, recliner, and both sideview mirrors to the desired positions.
NOTE: Not all motors may be moved at one time. Refer to “Power Seats If Equipped” in this section for further information.
3. Adjust the brake and accelerator pedals to the desired positions.
4. Turn on the radio and set the radio station presets (up to 10 AM and 10 FM stations can be set).
5. Adjust the Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) while the ATC is in Auto mode.
6. Press and release the SET button located on the driver’s seat.
7. Within five seconds, press and release MEMORY button 1 or 2 on the driver’s seat. The next steps must be performed within 10 seconds if you desire to also use a RKE transmitter to recall memory positions.
8. Turn the ignition OFF and remove the key. 9. Press and release the LOCK button on one of the RKE transmitters. 10. Repeat the above steps to set the next memory position using the other numbered memory button or to link another RKE transmitter to memory.
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- ther information.
To recall the memory settings for driver one, press MEMORY button number 1 on the driver’s seat or the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter linked to memory position 1.
To recall the memory setting for driver two, press MEMORY button number 2 on the driver’s seat or the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter linked to memory position 2. A recall can be cancelled by pressing any of the MEMORY buttons on the driver’s seat during a recall (S, 1, or 2), or 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 ignition switch. When a recall is can- celled, the driver’s seat and the pedals stop moving. A delay of one second will occur before another recall can be selected.
NOTE: A chime sound may be heard if setting memory was inhibited for any reason.
To Disable A RKE Transmitter Linked To Memory
1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and remove the key. 2. Press and release the memory SET button located on the driver’s seat. 3. Within 10 seconds, press and release the UNLOCK button on the RKE transmitter. To disable another RKE transmitter linked to either memory position, repeat Steps 1-3 for each RKE trans- mitter.
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 posi- tion will indicate the self-limiting control has been reset.
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.

2. Reach into the opening beneath the center of the hood and push the safety latch lever from right to left to release it, before raising the hood.
CAUTION! To prevent possible damage, do not slam the hood to close it. Use a firm downward push at the front center of the hood to ensure that both latches engage.
WARNING! Be sure the hood is fully latched before driving your vehicle. If the hood is not fully latched, it could open when the vehicle is in motion and block your vision. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious injury or death.
