99 04 Interior
Front seats
Power seats (option)
The power driver's seat can be adjusted:
If the ignition key is in position I or II.
During a 10 minute period after the doors have been unlocked if the door remains open.
If the door is closed and the ignition key is not yet in the ignition, or if the key is in position 0, the seat can be
adjusted or during a period of 40 seconds. The power passenger's seat can only be adjusted if the ignition key is in
position I or II, or if the engine is running.
Adjusting the seat
Seat adjustment controls 1, 2, 3, and 4 on the side of the seat can be used to move the seat to the position of your
choice.
1. Move this section of the control up or down to raise/lower the front section of the seat cushion.
2. Move the control forward/rearward to move the seat forward or rearward.
3. Move this section of the control up or down to raise/lower the rear section of the seat cushion.
4. Backrest tilt.
NOTE
The power seats have an overload protector that activates if a seat is blocked by any object. If this occurs, switch off
the ignition (key in position 0) and wait for approximately 20 seconds before operating the seat again.
Emergency stop
If the seat inadvertently begins to move, press any of the buttons to stop the seat.

Three different seating positions can be stored in the seat's memory. The memory buttons are located on the outboard
side of the driver's seat (see the illustration). The following example explains how memory button 1 can be
programmed. Buttons 2 and 3 can be programmed in the same way.
To program (store) a seat position in memory button 1:
1. Adjust the seat to the desired position (see the instructions under "Adjusting the seat").

2. Press and hold down the "M" (Memory) button.
3. With the "M" button depressed, press memory button 1 to store the seat's current position.
To move the seat to the position that it was in when memory button 1 was programmed, press and hold down button 1
until the seat stops moving.
As a safety precaution, the seat will stop automatically if the button is released before the seat has reached the preset
position.
Central locking system remote control and driver's seat memory
The remote control transmitter can also be equipped with an optional function that controls the electrically operated
driver's seat in the following way:
1. Adjust the seat to the desired position.
2. When you leave the car, lock it using the remote control.
3. The next time the driver's door is unlocked with the same remote control and that door is opened within 2 minutes,
the driver's seat and side door mirrors will automatically move to the position that they were in when the doors were
most recently locked with the same remote control.
NOTE
The memory function in the remote control operates independently of the memory function in the seat.
WARNING
ProCarManuals.com

The driver's door on vehicles equipped with keyless drive can be locked or unlocked with the remote control's
detachable key blade if necessary. See page 115
for information on removing the key blade from the remote control.
To access the keyhole in the driver's door:
1. Pry off the keyhole cover by inserting the key blade or a small screwdriver in the hole on the underside of the cover
(indicated by the arrow in the inset illustration).
2. Insert the key blade as far as possible in the driver's door lock. Turn the key blade clockwise approximately one
quarter turn to unlock the driver's door only. This will trigger the alarm.
Disabling the alarm: Press the Unlock button on the keyless drive remote control. If the batteries in the remote are
weak, remove the keyless drive start control from the ignition switch by pressing the catch (see the illustration on page
138) and pulling the control out of the ignition switch. Insert the ignition key section of a keyless drive remote control
in the ignition switch.
Keyless drive remote control and driver's seat memory
This function is only available on vehicles equipped with the optional power driver's seat.
When you leave the car with a keyless drive remote control in your possession and lock any door, the position of
the driver's seat will be stored in the seat's memory.
The next time a door is opened by a person with the same remote control in his/her possession, the driver's seat will
automatically move to the position that it was in when the door was most recently locked.
NOTE
If several people carrying keyless drive remote controls approach the vehicle at the same time, the driver's seat will
assume the position it was in for the person who opens a door first.

switched on, a message will be shown in the information display and an audible signal will sound.
NOTE
This message will only be displayed if the start control is in position I or II.
