If the seatback is moved from its forward stop angle
while the seat is traveling forward, the seat will
stop. If the seatback is returned to the forward stop
angle position, the seat will resume its forward

continue. To allow movement without returning to

electric seat controls.

momentarily activated (excluding the lumbar switch)
while the seat is traveling forward, the seat will
stop. If the seatback is returned to its upright
position, the seat will return to the position it wasat when the ease of entry cycle was started. To
