steering wheel and mirrors.

After adjusting, folding or raising a seat, make sure all parts of the seat are properly locked in place.

4.4.1.2. Saving a preset seat adjustment

You can save preset seat adjustments for the front seats.

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.

Make sure there is nothing under the seats when they are being adjusted.

By using the preset seat adjustment buttons, you can easily sit in your preferred position again without needing to adjust the

seat yourself. The buttons are located on the inside of either one or both front doors.

When you save a preferred position for the driver seat, it automatically saves your current positions for the wing mirrors.

However, saved positions for the passenger seat do not affect wing mirrors.
