How to Set the Seat Memory in Explorer?
2 Answers
Explorer seat memory setting method is as follows: 1. With the vehicle parked and in P gear, press the START ignition button. 2. Adjust the seat, steering wheel, and rearview mirrors. The seat memory function refers to integrating the car seat with the vehicle's onboard computer to add memory capability. When one driver has adjusted the seat position, the next driver can press a button to recall previously stored seat parameter settings for comfortable driving. A car's seat memory function can typically store 2 to 4 memory presets. 3. Press the SET button, then within 5 seconds press and hold a memory button (1 or 2) for at least 1 second. The memory indicator light will remain illuminated for 5 seconds to confirm successful setting.
Setting up the memory function for the Explorer seats is actually quite simple. First, adjust the seat, rearview mirror, and steering wheel to your most comfortable position, just like when you normally drive—not too far forward or back. Then, look for the button panel near the seat, which usually has a 'SET' key and numbered keys like '1' or '2'. Press the SET key to light it up, then quickly press a number key, such as '1'. It will beep or flash to confirm. Remember, each number corresponds to a memory position, so you can set it for different people. Even cooler, this feature can link to the car key—for example, your key can be tied to position 1, while your friend’s key will automatically restore their position when unlocking. Once set, the next time you start the car, the seat will automatically adjust to your preset position, saving you the hassle of manual adjustments. I think this design is especially practical for family cars—each person gets their own setting, making shared driving hassle-free. Just remember not to do this while driving; safety first—find a flat spot to park. If the buttons don’t respond, check if the battery is fully charged or if the memory module needs a reset. In short, spending two minutes setting this up will instantly elevate your daily driving convenience.
