To adjust the seats, the remote control must be
inserted in the starter control unit and the
ignition on. On those vehicles equipped with
the memory driver's seat, the seat has a 10
minute active period, initiated when the driver's
door is opened/closed or the remote control is
removed from the starter control unit.

Driving position memory

Once you have adjusted the power operated
driver's seat and exterior mirrors for your ideal
driving position, the vehicle can memorise
these settings for future use.

1. Press the memory store button to activate

the memory function.

2. Press one of the preset buttons within five

seconds to memorise the current settings.
MEMORY STORED will be displayed on the
message centre accompanied by an
audible chime to confirm the settings have
been memorised.

A seat position will only be memorised during
the five second active period.

Any existing settings will be over-written when
programming a memory position.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

1. Press the locking collar to release the head

restraint.

2. Whilst pressing the locking collar, move

the head restraint up or down to the
required position.

REAR SEATS

The split fold rear seat can be folded
completely to accommodate large loads, or
partially to accommodate large loads, and still
retain seating for passengers.

WARNINGS

Head restraints are designed to
support the head, not the back of the
neck. The restraint must be positioned

correctly to restrain rearward movement of the
head in a collision. An incorrectly adjusted
head restraint increases the risk of death or
serious injury in the event of a collision.

Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of the head restraint is above the
centre line of the head. An incorrectly

adjusted head restraint increases the risk of
death or serious injury in the event of a
collision. See SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION (page 47).

Do not drive, or carry passengers with
the head restraints removed from
occupied seats. The absence of a

correctly adjusted head restraint increases the
risk of death or serious injury in the event of a
collision.

Never adjust the head restraints while
the vehicle is in motion. An incorrectly
adjusted head restraint increases the

risk of death or serious injury in the event of a
collision.

WARNINGS

Always ensure that objects carried
within the vehicle are secured
properly. Unsecured items can cause

death or serious injury in the event of an
impact or sudden manoeuvre.

Never allow passengers to travel in the
load space under any circumstances.
All vehicle occupants should be seated

correctly, and wear a seat belt at all times
when the vehicle is in motion. Failure to do so
will greatly increase the risk of death and
serious injury in the event of an accident or
heavy braking.

Raising the rear seats

The process for raising the rear seat is the
reverse of folding.

When the seat back has been raised fully, and
is locked into position, the release button will
pop-up.

Note: The red warning section will only be
visible if the seat back has not been locked into
position.

HEATED SEATS

Note: To prevent the battery from becoming
discharged the seat heaters will only operate
when the engine is running.

The seat heaters will maintain a factory set
temperature, and have two levels of operation,
high, and low. There are two indicators in each
switch, if both are on the setting is high, if only
one is on the setting is low.

To operate:-

1. Press once to turn on to high.

2. Press again to change the setting to low.

3. Press a third time to switch off.

WARNING

Ensure that when the seat back is
raised the locking mechanism is fully
engaged. Failure to do so can increase

the risk of death or serious injury in the event
of an accident or sudden manoeuvre or heavy
braking.
