Pic. 1.52. Seat adjustment switches
By means of switches A and B, the position of the seats is adjusted electrically (pic. 1.52).
The adjustment can also be made with the ignition off.
Handwheel C is used to mechanically adjust the lumbar support.
Note: The power seat adjustment also functions when the ignition is switched off and the ignition key is removed. Therefore, children should never be left alone in a car without adult supervision.

Driver's seat memory
The memory for the driver's seat makes it possible to remember your individual seat and exterior mirror adjustments. Up to three people can memorize their individual settings by pressing one of the memory buttons D. When changing drivers, the seats and exterior mirrors will automatically assume the previously adjusted positions by pressing the button.
With the memory key you can memorize and recall:
- adjusted position of the driver's seat;
- adjusted position of the exterior mirrors (left and right) when moving forward;
- adjusted position of the right exterior mirror only when reversing.
In addition, using the remote control radio key, you can recall adjustments from the memory in accordance with any one memory key.
The lock switch E can be used to disable the memory system at any time. The position of the seat and exterior mirrors can then be adjusted manually.
Storing seat and exterior mirror settings for forward movement
Turn on the ignition.
Adjust the seat.
Set the position of both exterior mirrors.
Press one of the memory keys D and keep it pressed for approximately three seconds until a beep verifies that the memorization process has been successfully completed.
These adjustments are stored in the memory device under the key you have chosen.
Note: Each new entry of adjustments into the memory erases the previous adjustments on this key from memory.
Note: When the battery is disconnected from the on-board network, all memorized seat and exterior mirror settings are erased.
Storing the outside mirror adjustment when reversing
It is possible to change the previously adjusted position of the right mirror for reversing and enter new adjustments made in accordance with individual requirements into a memory device.
To do this, switch the setting of the exterior mirrors to the right mirror.
Engage reverse gear.
Install the right mirror.
Press the memory button D, on which the adjustment of the seat and exterior mirrors is memorized when driving forward, and keep the button pressed for about three seconds until an audible signal confirms the successful completion of the memorization process.
This adjustment is now memorized under the selected memory key.
Note: As soon as reverse gear is engaged, the right mirror will move to the preset position. This process will be interrupted when the mirror is moved manually to the new desired position.
Note: Each time you save the seat and exterior mirror settings for forward travel, you must also re-memorize the individual right mirror setting for reverse travel.
Coordination of the radio key of the remote control with the memory keys
In order for the settings stored in the memory to be called up also by remote control, the radio key of the remote control must be coordinated with each key of the memory.
It is recommended that one of the two radio keys supplied with the new car be coordinated with the left memory key, and the other radio key with the middle key.
If desired, another radio key can be ordered from a Volkswagen service company and then coordinated with the right memory button.
Calling up seat and exterior mirror settings for forward driving
Memorized adjustments can be called up either by pressing the memory keys D or by remote control.
Calling via memory keys
Pic. 1.55. Memory management buttons
For safety reasons, adjustments can only be called up when the ignition is switched off. There are two call options:
- «sensor-automatic» - lightly press the selected memory key D with the driver's door open. The seat and exterior mirrors will automatically take the position stored in the memory;
- «manual» - keep the selected memory key D pressed with the driver's door open or closed until the seat and exterior mirrors have finally taken the memorized position.
Note: If one of the memory buttons is pressed again during the automatic adjustment of the seat and exterior mirrors, the ongoing call process will be interrupted. If you then press the memory button again, the interrupted installation process will continue. If, on the contrary, one of the other two keys is pressed, the process of recalling the adjustments stored on this key will take place.
Instructions for using the blocking switch E
After pressing the lock switch E, the memory system is disabled. The seat and mirrors can only be installed manually. By pressing the lock switch E again, the memory system is switched on again. However, the interrupted memory installation process does not continue.
It is recommended to deactivate the memory system with the lock switch E when the vehicle is temporarily driven by a driver whose individual seat and mirror adjustments have not been memorized.
