Do not activate the easy-entry/exit
feature if the seat backrest is in an
excessively reclined position. Doing so
could cause damage to front or rear seats.

an extreme forward position. Instead, the

factory-set maximum forward position. To
again fully return the driver’s seat to your
last set position or to memory position,
adjust the seat to the desired position or

wheel is in the uppermost tilt position, the
steering wheel will no longer be able to
move upward when the easy-entry/exit
feature is activated.
If the current seat position falls into a
factory-set position range and the system
recognizes the current seat position to be
rearward enough for easy entry and exit,
the driver’s seat will not move to the rear
when the easy-entry/ exit feature is
activated.
The adjustment procedure is briefly
interrupted when the engine is started.
