Front seats
Power seats (option)
The power driver's seat can be adjusted:
If the ignition key is in position I or II.
During a 10 minute period after the doors have been unlocked if the door remains open.
If the door is closed and the ignition key is not yet in the ignition, or if the key is in position 0, the seat can be
adjusted or during a period of 40 seconds. The power passenger's seat can only be adjusted if the ignition key is in
position I or II, or if the engine is running.
Adjusting the seat
Seat adjustment controls 1, 2, 3, and 4 on the side of the seat can be used to move the seat to the position of your
choice.
1. Move this section of the control up or down to raise/lower the front section of the seat cushion.
2. Move the control forward/rearward to move the seat forward or rearward.
3. Move this section of the control up or down to raise/lower the rear section of the seat cushion.
4. Backrest tilt.
NOTE
The power seats have an overload protector that activates if a seat is blocked by any object. If this occurs, switch off
the ignition (key in position 0) and wait for approximately 20 seconds before operating the seat again.
Emergency stop
If the seat inadvertently begins to move, press any of the buttons to stop the seat.

side of the driver's seat (see the illustration above). The following example explains how memory button 1 can be
programmed. Buttons 2 and 3 can be programmed in the same way.
To program (store) a seat position in memory button 1:

until the seat stops moving.
As a safety precaution, the seat will stop automatically if the button is released before the seat has reached the preset
position.
Central locking system remote control and driver's seat memory
The remote control transmitter can also be equipped with an optional function that controls the electrically operated
driver's seat in the following way:
1. Adjust the seat to the desired position.
2. When you leave the car, lock it using the remote control.
3. The next time the driver's door is unlocked with the same remote control and that door is opened within 2 minutes,
the driver's seat and side door mirrors will automatically move to the position that they were in when the doors were
most recently locked with the same remote control.
NOTE
The memory function in the remote control operates independently of the memory function in the seat.

Movement of the seat can be STOPPED at any time by pressing any button on the power seat control panel.
Do not adjust the seat while driving. The seat should be adjusted so that the brake pedal can be depressed fully. In

When the rear seat is folded down, do not place heavy objects against the backs of the front seats. This places a
severe strain on the folded down backrest of the rear seat. Be sure to secure cargo.
