(N32/1, N32/2) control:
-
Four seat adjustment functions
-
The front seat adjustment forward/back motor groups (M27m1,
M28m1), the rear raise/lower motors (M27m2, M28m2) and the
front raise/lower motors (M27m3, M28m3) as well as the
backrest adjustment forward/back motors (M27m5, M28m5)
are identical on the left and right seats.
