Multicontour seat (optional) Some models may be equipped with driver's multicontour seat. These seats have movable seat cushions and inflatable air cushions built into the backrest to provide additional lumbar and side support. The seat cushion movement and amount of backrest cushion height and curvature can be continuously varied with regulators (1, 2 and 3) after turning the electronic key in starter switch to position 2. The side bolsters of the backrest can be adjusted with rocker switch (4): • press to the left - increase side support, • press to the right - decrease side support. We recommend to adjust the multicontour seat in the following order: 1 Seat cushion depth 2 Backrest bottom 3 Backrest center 4 Side bolster adjustment If the engine is turned off, the last cushion setting is retained in memory, and automatically adjusts the cushion to this setting when the engine is restarted.
