CONTROLS -> Seat adjustment for Your Mini Cooper 2 Door First Generation (2001-2005)

SEAT ADJUSTMENT  
Important adjustment information  
Never try to adjust your seat while  
operating the vehicle. The seat could  
respond with an unexpected movement,  
and the ensuing loss of vehicle control  
could lead to an accident.  
While driving, do not recline the backrest  
too far toward the rear. This especially  
applies to the front passenger side. If you  
do so, there is a risk that you will slide  
under the safety belt in an accident, thus  
reducing the protection provided by the  
safety belt.<

ing until the seat reaches the desired  
height

upright posture.  
2. Apply weight to or remove weight from  
the backrest as required  
3. Release the lever so that the backrest  
locks into place.  
To lower: press the button and push the  
head restraint downward.  
You can reduce the risk of spinal  
injury and whiplash by adjusting the  
head restraint to a height at which it is cen-  
tered roughly at ear level.  
Turn the wheel.  
The curvature is increased or decreased.  
To avoid possible violation of traffic laws,  
never retract the head restraints unless the  
rear seats are empty. Always ensure that  
the head restraints are raised before trans-  
porting passengers in the rear seat.<
