Comfort functions
Memorising driving positions
Associated with the electrically-adjusted driver’s
seat, this function allows two driving positions
to be memorised, to make these adjustments
easier if there are frequent driver changes.
It records the electric adjustments made to the
seat and door mirrors.


Using buttons M/1/2
► Enter the vehicle and switch the ignition on.
►

Adjust your seat and the door mirrors.
►


Press button
M, then press button 1 or 2
within 4 seconds.
An audible signal confirms the memorisation.
Memorising a new position cancels the previous
position.
Recalling a stored position
While the seat is moving, take care that
no person or object hinders the
automatic movement of the seat.
With the ignition on or engine running
► Press button 1 or 2 to recall the
corresponding position.
An audible signal sounds when adjustment is
complete.
You can interrupt the current movement by
pressing button M, 1 or 2 or by using one of the
seat adjustment controls.
A stored position cannot be recalled while
driving.
The recalling of stored positions is deactivated
45 seconds after switching off the ignition.
Heated seats



The function is active only with the engine
running.
► Press the button corresponding to the seat.

When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electrical
consumption in turn decreases energy
consumption.
Prolonged use of heated seats is not
recommended for people with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking
medication, etc.).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:

front seat.
► Press this button; its indicator lamp
comes on.
The function is activated immediately using the
last settings memorised and the settings page is
displayed on the touch screen.
If the settings suit you and you make no
changes, the display returns to its original state.
