Turn on the ignition switch; Press down the red "Memory-Off" button; Adjust the driver's seat and exterior mirrors to the most comfortable position, then press and hold one of the memory buttons on the left side of the driver's seat; Turn off the ignition switch and remove the ignition key, press and hold the unlock button on the key until you hear a "dong" confirmation sound indicating the setup is complete.
I once set up seat memory for my Passat Lingyu, which is quite convenient. First, the car needs to be started with the engine in the 'on' state; otherwise, the buttons won't work. Sit in the driver's seat and adjust it to your most comfortable position, including the backrest height, front/rear distance, and headrest angle. Once adjusted, locate the button with the letter 'M' (sometimes on the side door panel) and press it briefly. The system will beep to indicate it's in memory mode. Then immediately press the number key 1, 2, or 3 to save the position—I usually choose 1. Next time you get in the car, press and hold the 1 key, and the seat will automatically return to the saved position. Also, don’t forget that each key can be bound to a different memory, making it convenient for family members to take turns driving. When setting it up, avoid moving around to ensure the position is saved accurately, and test the restore function afterward. Occasionally, if the memory gets stuck, just power off and restart.
As a seasoned car repair veteran, the Passat Lingyu's seat memory settings require attention to detail. After starting the car, ensure the voltage is stable and adjust the seat to your custom position (don’t forget the rearview mirror). Locate the memory M button, press it briefly to trigger a prompt tone, then immediately press the preset number key to save. To restore, hold the corresponding number key for automatic reset. Common issues like stuck buttons can be resolved by cleaning the contacts with a cotton swab; if memory is inaccurate, check seat track lubrication or restart the system. After setting, make it a habit to check once to avoid errors affecting daily use. For family members of different sizes, assign different memory numbers to each key for direct linkage to unlock and restore settings.
I recently learned how to set the seat memory for the Passat, and it's super simple. After starting the car, adjust the seat to your comfortable position. Press the M button on the door, and immediately after hearing a beep, press a number key like 1 to save the setting. To recall the position when you get in the car, just hold down 1. The whole process takes less than half a minute and is incredibly convenient! Just remember to ensure the position is truly comfortable before pressing M for the first time—don't rush it.
