Adjust the seat to your preferences.
When you leave your car, lock it using the remote control.
The next time you unlock the driver's door with the same remote control (the one you used to lock the doors with) and
open the driver's door, the driver's seat will automatically move to the position in which you left it.
The seat will move to this position even if someone else has adjusted it since you last unlocked the car with the same
remote control.
NOTE! This feature will work in the same way with all of the remote control transmitters (up to 3) that you use with
your car.
