Lastly, adjust the steering wheel (see page 107). IB401 Seats Both front seats are electrically operated. On certain models the driver´s seat is equipped with a memory function. To facilitate getting into the car, both seats can be adjusted when either of the front doors is open. For safety reasons, if the door is closed, the seat can only be adjusted when the ignition is ON. Note, however, that both seats can be adjusted for 30 seconds after both doors have been closed. WARNING The seats are actuated by powerful motors. Take care that to ensure that nothing can be trapped when adjusting the seat. Bear in mind that children can be injured if they play with the electrically-operated seats Height To raise the seat, lift the lower control straight up. To lower the seat, press the lower control down. The same control can be used to adjust the height of the front and rear edges of the seat independently. WARNING Never adjust the driver's seat except when the car is stationary. Side airbags (see page 28).
