Pre-facelift front seat crosscut.

Front seat adjustment

The seat adjustment switches are located on the front doors.

  • (1) Head restraint height
  • (2) Seat height
  • (3) Seat cushion tilt
  • (4) Seat cushion depth
  • (5) Seat fore and aft adjustment
  • (6) Seat backrest tilt

To adjust the seat switch on ignition or open the respective door.

Seat fore and aft adjustment: Press the switch forward or backward in the direction of arrow (5). Adjust seat to a comfortable seating position that still allows you to reach the accelerator/brake pedal safely. The position should be as far to the rear as possible, consistent with ability to properly operate controls.

Seat cushion tilt: Press the switch up or down in the direction of arrow (3) until your upper legs are lightly supported.

Seat cushion depth: Press the switch forward or backward in the direction of arrow (4) until your legs are supported comfortably.

Seat backrest tilt: Press the switch forward or backward in the direction of arrow (6) until your arms are slightly angled when holding the steering wheel.

Seat height: Press the switch up or down in the direction of arrow (2).

Head restraint height: Press the switch up or down in the direction of arrow (1).

Head restraint tilt: Manually adjust the angle of the head restraint. Push or pull on the lower edge of the head restraint cushion.

Unoccupied front passenger seat automatic adjusting: The feature below is deactivated at the factory. If you wish to have it activated, use DAS. The front passenger seat head restraint automatically lowers after a few seconds when the front passenger seat is not occupied. This improves the driver's outward view as well as the forward view from the rear passenger compartment. When the front passenger seat is occupied again, the front passenger seat head restraint returns to the last set position within a few seconds. If the front passenger seat was moved fore or aft while not being occupied, the front passenger seat head restraint returns to a position that corresponds best with the seat’s axial position when the seat is occupied again.
