STEERING COLUMN 
ADJUSTMENT

!

WARNING:

Never adjust the steering wheel 
position whilst the vehicle is in motion. 
Doing so will reduce control of the 
vehicle, and may cause unpredictable 
steering movements.

The steering column can be adjusted for 
tilt and reach by operating the control 
switch on the left side of the steering 
column.

Turn the switch to the COLUMN or AUTO 
position.

Move the switch forwards or backwards 
to adjust reach.

Move the switch up or down to tilt.

Three column positions may be stored 
and recalled by the Driver Position 
Memory system. See page 108.

ENTRY/EXIT MODE

Entry/exit mode provides automatic 
movement of the steering column and 
driver’s seat to allow easier entry to or exit 
from the vehicle.

Entry/exit mode is selected by setting the 
steering column adjustment switch to the 
AUTO position.

Exit– If the ignition key is in position 0 and 
the driver’s door is opened or if the 
ignition key is removed, the steering 
column will move to the uppermost tilt 
position. The seat will move rearwards 
unless it is already 40 mm (1.5 inches) or 
less from its fully rearward position when 
it will not move any further back.

Entry– When the key is next inserted in 
the ignition switch and the door is closed, 
the steering column and seat will return to 
their previous positions. If, however, the 
memorised driver position has been 
changed (using the door memory switch 
or another integrated key), the steering 
wheel and seat will move to the new 
position.

Caution: Do not use steering wheel 
mounted security devices since 
movement of the steering wheel in 
entry/exit mode could result in vehicle 
damage (e.g. the windshield) or 
possible injury to the occupant.

Note: 

•

If the adjustment switch is moved 
away from AUTO whilst the steering 
column is tilted away, the steering 
column will move back to its 
memorised position when the key is 
next inserted in the ignition and 
entry/exit mode is then cancelled.

•

If the adjustment switch is moved 
during entry/exit operation, steering 
column movement will stop.

PEDAL ADJUSTMENT

!

WARNING:

Do not adjust the pedals whilst driving.

This facility enables the pedals to be 
moved towards or away from the driver’s 
seat, providing extra adjustment for the 
driving position. All pedals move together 
(no individual pedal adjustment) and are 
electrically controlled from the combined 
steering column/pedal adjust switch on 
the left side of the steering column 
housing. The adjustment can be made 
with or without the ignition key inserted.

To adjust the position of the pedals, turn 
the switch to PEDALS, then push it 
forwards or rearwards to cause a 
corresponding movement of the pedal 
assembly.

Three pedal positions may be stored and 
recalled by the Driver Position Memory 
system. See Driving Position Memory 
on page 108. It will not be possible to 
adjust the pedals if cruise control has 
been set.
