Key memory – power driver's seat* and door mirrors
Each remote key has a memory that enables it to store (remember) the position of the power driver's seat and door mirrors when the vehicle is locked with that remote key.
Remote key memory and the power driver's seat* and door mirrors1
The key memory has to be activated for each of the remote keys used in the vehicle as follows:
Insert a remote key in the ignition slot.
Go into the MY CAR menu and go to
To activate the remote key memory feature, press ENTER (check the box).
The remote key is now ready to store the position of the power driver's seat and door mirrors.
Repeat this procedure for each of the vehicle's remote keys.
See My Car – introduction for a description of the menu system.
Storing the positions of the power driver's seat/mirrors in the remote key
Move the seat and door mirrors to the desired position using the seat and mirror adjustment controls.
Exit the vehicle and lock the doors with the remote key (or close the driver's door and press the lock button on the door handle with the remote key in your possession on vehicles with the optional keyless drive).
The positions of the power driver's seat and door mirrors are now stored in the remote key's memory.
Note
The remote key's memory feature and the power driver's seat memory function (the settings made using the buttons on the side of the seat, see the section "Power seat memory function" in Front seats – power seat2) work independently of each other.
Returning the seat/mirrors to the stored positions
To move the seat and door mirrors to the position stored in the remote key:
Unlock the driver's door with the same remote key (the one used to lock the doors). For models equipped with the optional keyless drive, you must have the same remote key in your possession.
Open the driver's door within 2 minutes.
The driver's seat and door mirrors will automatically move to the position in which you left them (if the vehicle has been unlocked with one of the other keys and new seat/mirror adjustments have been made).
Note
- The seat will move to this position even if someone else has moved it to a different position and locked the vehicle with a different remote key.
- This feature will work in the same way with all of the remote keys that you use with your vehicle.
Emergency stop
Warning
- Because the driver's seat can be adjusted with the ignition off, children should never be left unattended in the vehicle.
- Movement of the seat can be STOPPED at any time by pressing any button on the power seat control panel.
- Do not adjust the seat while driving. The seat should be adjusted so that the brake pedal can be depressed fully. In addition, position the seat as far rearward as comfort and control allow.
- The seat rails on the floor must not be obstructed in any way when the seat is in motion.
