Where is the car seat adjustment located?

Car seat adjustment controls are located on the side of the seat, with switches divided into manual and automatic adjustments. Precautions for seat adjustment: 1. Adjust the seat as far back as possible: When adjusting the seat's front and rear position, ensure the accelerator pedal can be fully depressed while keeping the seat as far back as possible. More space means less risk in case of an accident. 2. Ensure proper leg bend: When adjusting the front and rear position, make sure your legs maintain a slight bend when fully depressing the accelerator pedal. This allows proper force application when braking and prevents knee injury from brake pedal reaction force during emergency braking.
Where to find the seat adjustment in the car? I usually find it on the side or underneath the seat. Having driven many different models, like sedans and SUVs, the lever for manual seats is typically at the front left or right side of the seat base—just a small rod you can reach and push or pull to move the seat. For power seats, the buttons are on the side near the door, like a small panel. Press up and down to adjust height, and use the forward/backward buttons to change position. They're designed there so you can reach them easily while driving without obstructing your legs. If you can't find it, feel along the lower edge of the seat—especially in older models, the lever might be tucked deeper. I often drive long distances, and a well-adjusted seat keeps me comfortable, reduces back pain, and minimizes driving fatigue. A little tip: When buying a new car, always test the seat adjustments and familiarize yourself with the controls—safety comes first!
