During autoglide operation the column will move to the full in and up position. The column will return when autoglide is completed. During easy exit (if activated through the Message Center) operation the column will move to the full in and up position. When the key is inserted into the ignition switch the column will return to the previous setting. When you remove the key the column will move away. If the steering column adjustment switch is pressed during memory recall the switch position will cancel automatic operation and the column will respond to manual adjustment of the switch. The manual adjustment of the steering column is adjustable with the ignition switch on or off. The steering column can be adjusted manually by using the four-way rocker adjustment switch located on the multi-function switch below the turn signal/wiper switch stalk. The switch will adjust the column as long as held or until the column reaches the end of travel. The telescope function is adjusted by pulling the switch towards the driver to telescope out and pushing the switch towards the instrument panel to telescope in. The tilt function is adjusted by pressing the switch up to tilt the column up or pressing the switch down to tilt the column down. NOTE: If attempting to manually adjust the steering column and it does not respond see your local dealer for service. 92
