How to Set Up Electric Seat Memory?

Electric seat memory setting: After ignition, adjust the seat to a comfortable state and the preset position; press the SET button on the door panel and hold for about 3 seconds, at which point the SET light will illuminate. Select to store position 1 or 2, and upon hearing a beep, the seat position will be memorized. When driving again, simply press the preset 1 or 2 to recall the stored position. The method for setting up electric seat memory is as follows: 1. Ensure the car is in an operational state: After ignition, make sure the car is operational, then adjust the seat to your comfortable or desired preset position. 2. Press the SET button on the door panel: Hold for about 3 seconds until the SET light turns on, then select storage position 1 or 2. Upon hearing a beep, the seat position will be memorized. 3. Press the preset 1 or 2: The next time you drive, simply press the preset 1 or 2, and the seat will automatically adjust to your preferred position, eliminating the need for manual adjustment of front/rear position and height. 4. Driver's seat memory function: In some mid-to-high-end models with higher configurations, the driver's seat usually has a memory function, which is very convenient and practical. It stores the previously adjusted seat settings, allowing for easy recall when needed. When another user adjusts the seat for comfort, the system saves the previous settings. Upon the original user's return, pressing a single button restores the stored personal settings. Electric seat memory typically has two to four memory groups.
Setting up electric seat memory is really simple. Let me start with the basics. Park the car in a safe location, preferably in park or neutral, and start the engine. Adjust the seat to your most comfortable position, including height, angle, and backrest position. Then, press the 'SET' button next to the seat, which will light up. Quickly press a numbered button, such as 1, 2, or 3, to save the position. Note that some cars require pressing the brake pedal to activate the system. Once set, pressing the numbered button later will automatically restore the seat position. I often share my car with friends, and this feature saves the hassle of readjusting each time, especially useful for families or multiple users. If the setup fails, possible reasons could be low battery or poor contact—regular checks or consulting the manual can help. Button locations vary by brand; for example, BMW's is on the door panel, while Mercedes' is on the seat side, but the steps are largely similar—just stay patient.
