adjustment. Use of the button is
recommended to disable the memory
system when the vehicle is being driven temporarily by a different driver
whose settings do not need to be stored in the memory.
Note
You can also use the remote control to call up the stored settings
⇒ page 136.Storing settingsThe button must be in its down position (pressed in) before
you can store the desired settings.
– Adjust the driver's seat as required ⇒page 132.
– Adjust both exterior mirrors ⇒page 128.
– Press and hold the button. At the same time, press one of
the memory buttons fo r at least a second.
– Release both buttons. The setting is now stored on the selected memory button.Any new setting selected automatically cancels the existing setting stored on
the memory button. It is best to begi n with memory button No. 1 for the first
driver and then assign the other memory buttons to each subsequent driver.
The seat and mirror positions are stored when the car is locked with the
remote control and are assigned to th e remote control key. The exterior
mirrors adjust automatically to the previous position when you unlock the
car; the driver's seat adjusts automatically when you open the driver's door. However, this does not delete the settings stored in memory buttons 1 to 4.
These settings can be enabled at any time.
Enabling settings
Stored settings can be recalled using either the memory
buttons or the remote control (remote control key).Using the memory buttons
– If the driver's door is open, press the desired memory button
briefly.
– If the driver's door is closed, press and hold down the appro- priate memory button until the seat and exterior mirrors reach
their programmed positions.
Using the remote control
– Unlock the vehicle using the remote control and open the driver's door within the next ten minutes.The seat adjustment will have to be called up using the memory buttons if the
driver's door is not opened within 10 minutes after unlocking the vehicle with
the remote control.
WARNING
•
For safety reasons, the seat must only be adjusted when the vehicle is
at a standstill. Failure to do so could result in an accident.
•
In an emergency, the memory function can be stopped at any time by
pressing the STOP button or by briefly pressing any of the memory
buttons.
