How to Set the Seat Memory in the Mazda3 Axela?
2 Answers
The seat memory function in the Mazda3 Axela is located on the left side of the driver's instrument panel, next to the engine auto start-stop button. There are several buttons there. After adjusting the seat to your desired position, press and hold the 'set' button, then press and hold '1' to save the position to memory slot 1. Below is an introduction to the seat memory function: 1. Introduction: Electric seat memory, also known as automatic adjustable memory seats, allows the driver to memorize and automatically adjust the front seat position via control buttons. Memory electric seats not only have the mechanical adjustment functions of regular electric seats, adapting to drivers of different body types or meeting various seating position requirements, but also add the capability to memorize and recall seat positions. 2. Working Principle: The main hardware components of the memory storage seat control system include motors, sensors, and the ECU. The control system uses the ECU as the core to connect various components and adjust the seat position. The driver can adjust four positions of the seat: front and vertical lift, horizontal slide, and backrest angle. Initially, the driver inputs control signals via button operations. These signals are processed by the ECU, which then outputs motor drive signals to adjust the seat to the most comfortable position.
I remember when I wanted to set up the seat memory function for my Mazda3 Axela, the process was actually quite straightforward. First, after getting in the car, make sure the vehicle is powered on by pressing the ignition button. Then adjust the seat to your most comfortable position, including the backrest, height, and fore-aft distance. Next, locate the memory button on the center console, usually labeled as Set or Memory, press it once and quickly press a numbered button like 1 or 2 to save the position. This way, the next time you get in the car, pressing the corresponding number will automatically recall your preset position. This feature is particularly useful for families - when my family shares the car, we've each set our own memory presets to avoid manual adjustments every time. Moreover, the Axela's memory system can even link to smart keys, with different keys corresponding to different seat presets for added convenience. I recommend testing the memory function a few times during initial use to confirm it works properly. Once you get used to this smart feature through daily driving, you'll appreciate how it saves time and enhances safety.
