Recalling a Position

2. Press and release the desired memory button (1, 2 or 3).
Pressing any seat adjustment or memory button immediately interrupts the current adjustment process.

The following function can be programmed: when you unlock the vehicle remotely with your personal key, the seat, mirrors and steering wheel automatically move to the positions programmed for you.
If you use this function, before unlocking the vehicle make sure that the space behind the driver's seat is clear. A seat moving rearward may injure rear passengers or damage objects located there.
