"textContent": "The present invention provides an apparatus (10) including a steering column (14) movable between first and second positions along a path (28,30). The path (28,30) defines tilting movement of at least a portion of the steering column, telescoping movement of at least a portion of the steering column, or both tilting and telescoping movement. The apparatus (10) also includes a lock (12,112) moveable between locked and unlocked positions. When the lock (12,112) is in the locked position, the steering column (14) is locked along the path (28,30). When the lock (12,112) is in the unlocked position, the steering column (14) is moveable along the path (12,112). The apparatus (10) also includes a switch (16) operable to emit an second signal. The apparatus (10) also includes a controller (18) communicating with the switch (16) to receive the unlock signal. The controller (18) controls the lock (12,112) to move to the unlocked position in response to the unlock signal. The apparatus (10) also includes a signal generator (20,22,24) operable to emit a second signal to the controller (18). The controller (18) overrides the unlock signal and controls the lock (12,112) to move to the locked position in response to the second signal.",
