Park the vehicle and shift to P (Park) position. Press the START ignition button. Adjust the seat, steering wheel, and mirrors. Press the SET switch, then press and hold the memory switch for at least 1 second within 5 seconds.
Setting up the seat memory in a Mazda is quite intuitive—just follow these key steps. First, sit in the car, start the engine or at least turn the ignition to the ON position, then adjust the seat to your ideal position, including height, forward/backward movement, and backrest tilt. Next, locate and press the SET button on the door or center console—it will flash to indicate you're in setup mode. Finally, select a preset number (e.g., 1, 2, or 3) as your memory position and press it once to save. The next time you enter the car, simply press the same preset button to automatically restore your seat position. In higher trim models, you can even link this function to your smart key, allowing the seat to adjust automatically upon unlocking—a handy feature, especially when sharing the car with family to avoid manual adjustments. If the system doesn’t respond after saving, check whether the car is running or if the battery is low; otherwise, a dealership visit may be needed to reprogram the key. This system relies on seat sensors and an electronic control unit—avoid using excessive force during maintenance to prolong its lifespan and ensure safety.
