rh71- car has the option and have seen the height scale on the info. screen.

How about this thought? Could the key battery need to be charged ? (which I understand is what happens when you insert key into ignition, right?) A symbol on the dash flashed what appeared to be a key and a charging symbol.
Kind of makes sense as the car has been on a lot for 3 months. Will see if it changes after using key for awhile.
