Position of the steering wheel and the driver's seat for driving

If you insert the SmartKey into the ignition lock with the driver's door closed, depending on the setting, the position of the steering wheel and the driver's seat will be changed to the previously set position.

The last position of the steering wheel or seat is stored if:
• the ignition is switched off or
• the setting is stored with the memory function.
