Seats

WARNING

The seats are actuated by powerful motors. Bear this in mind when adjusting the seat, and make sure that nothing gets caught and damaged. Ensure that noth- ing can be trapped when adjusting the seat.

Bear in mind that children can be injured if they play with the electrically-operated seats.

Always remove the ignition key when you leave the car. This prevents personal injury caused by the electrically adjust- able seats, for example, due to children playing.

Both front seats are electrically operated. On certain models the driver´s seat is equipped with a memory function.

To facilitate getting into the car, both seats can be adjusted when either of the front doors is open.

For safety reasons, if the door is closed, the seat can only be adjusted when the ignition is ON.

Note, however, that both seats can be adjusted for 30 seconds after both doors have been closed.

The following seat adjustments can be made to achieve a comfortable driving position:

height

We recommend that adjustments to the driver’s seat be performed in the following order:
