Restricted Seat Travel

If seat movement stops unexpectedly during adjustment, check for and remove any obstructions.

Once any obstructions have been removed, the seat adjustment mechanism can be reset as follows:

Operate the button again to continue the stalled adjustment, and hold it in that position for 2 seconds. When seat movement resumes, hold the button until the end of travel in that direction has been reached. Seat adjustment can now be carried out as normal.

Note: If no obstructions can be seen, but normal adjustment cannot be carried out without stalling, contact your Dealer or Approved Repairer.

Sitting in the Correct Position

Warning: The driver and front seat passenger must not ride with the seat fully reclined.

Warning: Do not adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving.

The seat, head restraint, seatbelt and airbags all contribute to the protection of the user. Correct use of these components will give you greater protection.

Always observe the following points:

1. Sit in an upright position with the base of your spine as far back as possible and the seatback reclined no more than 30 degrees.
2. Do not move the driver's seat too close to the steering wheel. Ideally, a minimum distance of 254 mm (10 inches) is recommended between the breastbone and the steering wheel airbag cover. Hold the steering wheel with your arms slightly bent.

• Adjust the head restraint so that the top of the head restraint is above the centre line of the head.
• Position the seatbelt so that it is midway between your neck and your shoulder. Fit the strap tightly across your hips, not across your stomach.
• Ensure that your driving position is comfortable and enables you to maintain full control of the vehicle.

Driving Position Memory

Once you have adjusted the power-operated driver's seat, steering column and exterior mirrors for your ideal driving position, the vehicle can memorise these settings for future use.

1. Press the memory store (M) button to activate the memory function.
2. Press one of the preset buttons within 5 seconds to memorise the current settings.
3. To recall a stored position, press the relevant preset button.

A seat position will only be memorised during the 5 second active period.

Any existing settings will be overwritten when programming a memory position.

Folding Armrest

If fitted, the folding armrest may be stowed by moving it to the vertical position.

Use the adjuster wheel to set the required height.
