Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Centering for setting the seat back width adjustment
Following every manual adjustment, the position of the backrest side section is tracked. During this process, compensation is made for any difference between the left and right position. Compensation is made if the signals from the Hall sensors vary by at least 5 Hall pulses.
Centering begins 1 second after a seat back width adjustment has been made. If one attempt fails, the centering process is repeated 2 seconds later.
Active centering is interrupted by manual adjustments.
If the active seat back width adjustment is activated, the seat back width is not tracked.
