WARNING
● The height of the driver seat must not be adjusted while driving. Fail-
ure to do so could result in an accident.
● Be careful when adjusting the seat height. Injuries can be caused if
the seat height is adjusted without due care and attention.
Adjusting the backrest angle
– Lean forwards to take your weight off the backrest.
– Turn the adjuster wheel 3
⇒ Fig. 105 to set the angle of the
backrest as required.
WARNING
The front seat backrests must not be reclined for driving. Otherwise, seat
belts and the airbag system might not protect as they should, with the
subsequent danger of injury.
Adjusting lumbar support*
– Do not exert any pressure on the backrest and turn adjuster
wheel 4 ⇒ Fig. 105 to adjust lumbar support.
As you make the adjustments, the curvature of the cushioned area of the
lumbar region becomes more or less acute. In this way, it adapts to the nat-
ural curvature of the spine.

and recall up to four different positions for the driver seat
and exterior mirrors.

exterior mirrors can now only be adjusted using the conventional electrical
adjustment. Use of the STOP
button is recommended to disable the memory
