Automatic Drive Positioner

AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONER

System Description
- The system automatically moves the driver seat and steering wheel to facilitate entry/exit to/from the vehicle by connecting the BCM (Body Control Module) to the driver seat control unit and door mirror control unit (driver side/passenger side) via the multiple communication line. The BCM can also store the optimum driving positions for 2 people. If the driver is changes, one-touch operation allows changing to the other driving position.
- The settings (ON/OFF) of the automatic tilt steering wheel and sliding seat (turnout operation) at entry/exit can be changed as desired, using the display unit in the center of the instrument panel.
- Using CONSULT-II, the seat sliding amount and positions at entry/exit setting can be changed.

FAIL-SAFE MODE.
- If the following conditions are met, the status is judged "Output malfunction" and all auto operations are inhibited. If the ignition switch is turned ON without any manual operation of seat sliding, seat reclining, or steering tilt function (switch input). If the signals from all seat sliding, seat reclining, and steering tilt sensors are input without any auto operation signals. Then within 2.5 seconds after that, the seat is slid by 6 mm (0.24 in) or more, reclined by or more, or the steering wheel is tilted by or more.

CANCEL OF FAIL-SAFE MODE
- The mode is cancelled when the selector lever is shifted to P-position from any other position.
- The mode can be cancelled with CONSULT-II.

MANUAL OPERATION
- The driving position (seat position, steering wheel position, door mirror position) can be adjusted with the power seat switch or ADP (Automatic Drive Positioner) steering switch.

NOTE:
- The seat and steering wheel position can be manually operated with the ignition switch OFF.
- The door mirrors can be manually operated with the ignition switch in either ACC or ON.

Automatic Operation:




AUTOMATIC OPERATION
- During automatic operation, if the ignition switch is turned ON->START, the automatic operation is suspended. When the switch returns to ON, it resumes.
- Disconnecting the battery erases the stored memory. After connecting the battery, insert the key into the ignition cylinder and turn driver door switch ON (open)->OFF (close)->ON (open), the auto return 4 operation becomes possible.






NOTE: After auto return 4 is carried out, auto return 2 and 3 can be operated.

Procedure For Storing Memory:
