• Within several minutes after the driver's
door has been unlocked from the outside,
has been opened, and remains open.
• Within a short period if the driver's door has
just been closed.
• Within a short period if the driver's door has
not been opened after the ignition has
been switched off.

Power seat adjustment controls
Seat adjustment
Adjust the power seat(s) with the two controls at the side of the seat as follows:
1 Front edge of seat (raise/lower)
2 Forward – rearward
3 Rear edge of seat (raise/lower)
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 a short period
before operating the seat again.
Emergency stop
If the seat accidentally begins to move, press any of the buttons to stop the seat.
NOTE
Please refer to the following page for information
on programming the memory function
in the driver's seat.
Remote keyless entry system and the driver's seat
The remote key transmitter also controls the position of the electrically operated driver's seat in the following way:
• Adjust the seat to your preferences.
• When you leave your vehicle, lock it using
the remote key.
The position of the seat is now stored in the remote key.
Automatic seat adjustment
To move the seat to the position in which you left it:
1. Unlock the driver's door with the same
remote key (the one used to lock the doors)
2. Open the driver's door within 2 minutes.
The driver's seat will automatically move to the position in which you left it.
NOTE
• The seat will move to this position even
if someone else has moved it to a different
seating position and locked the
vehicle with a different remote key.
• This feature will work in the same way
with all of the remote key transmitters
(up to 3) that you use with your vehicle.
• This feature will not function if you lock
your vehicle with the key.
WARNING
• Because the driver's seat can be
adjusted with the ignition off, children
should never be left unattended in the
vehicle.
• 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
addition, position the seat as far rearward
as comfort and control allow.
• The seat rails on the floor must not be
obstructed in any way when the seat is
in motion.
Programming the memory
Three different seating and door mirror positions can be stored in the driver seat's memory.
The following example explains how button 1 can be programmed. Buttons 2 and 3 can be programmed in the same way.
To program (store) a seat position in button 1:
1. Move the seat to the desired position using
the seat adjustment controls.
2. Press and hold down the MEM (memory)
button
3. With the MEM button depressed, press
button 1 briefly to store the seat's current
position.
To move the seat to the position that it was in when button 1 was programmed:
Press and hold down 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.
