Front seats
Proper seat position is important for:
- fast and reliable use of controls
- relaxed, non-fatiguing posture
- to achieve the maximum protective effect of the belts and the airbag system.
Warning: Therefore, do not move the front seats too close to the steering wheel/dashboard.
Keep your feet in the footwell while driving – never on the dashboard or seat cushions.
Install your seat as described below. Please also observe the basic adjustment of the driver's and front passenger's seats below.
Driver's seat
We recommend that you adjust the driver's seat as follows:
- Adjust the longitudinal position of the driver's seat so that you can fully depress the pedals with slightly bent legs.
- Adjust the angle of the backrest so that the backrest rests completely against your back and you can reach the highest point of the steering wheel with slightly bent arms.
Warning: No objects are allowed in the footwell, as in case of emergency braking, they can get under the pedals.
Warning: In this case, you will not be able to brake, release the clutch or press the accelerator pedal!
Front passenger seat
The following adjustment of the front passenger seat is recommended:
- direct (vertical) back position.
- Comfortable positioning of the legs in the legroom.
- At the same time, move the seat as far back as possible.
1 back release
(two-door models only)
Pull the handle up, unlock the backrest and fold it forward. When the backrest is folded, the seat cushion rises slightly and moves forward.
To return the backrest to its original position, pull the handle up again.
To enable the driver to unlock and fold the front passenger seat backrest, there is an additional release handle on the left side of the passenger seat.
Warning: For safety reasons, the backrests of the front seats must always be locked when driving!
2 backrest adjustment
Unload the seat back and adjust its inclination by turning the handle.
Warning: To prevent the safety of the seat belts from being impaired, do not recline the seatbacks too far back while driving.
3 seat height adjustment*
The seat height is adjusted by pressing or pulling the handle.
Warning: For safety reasons, do not adjust the height of the driver's seat while driving!
Warning: Be careful when adjusting the height! Inattention or loss of control over the adjustment process can cause injury.
4 lumbar support output (ergomatic) *
By pressing the switch forward or backward, you can respectively extend or remove, changing the convexity of the contour of the backrest, the upholstery in the lumbar area.
This ensures an extremely effective support of the lumbar spine along its entire natural contour, with a fatigue-free fit even on long journeys.
5 longitudinal seat adjustment
Pull the handle up and move the seat. Then release the handle and slide the seat until the latch clicks into place.
Warning: For safety reasons, do not adjust the longitudinal position of the driver's seat while driving!

2 seat height adjustment
The seat height is electrically adjusted by pulling/pressing the switch in the appropriate direction, up or down.
Warning: For safety reasons, do not adjust the height of the driver's seat while driving!
Warning: Be careful when adjusting the height! Inattention or loss of control over the adjustment process can cause injury. The electric drive also works with the ignition off / after removing the key from the ignition lock. Therefore, never leave children unattended in the car.
3 lumbar support output
By pressing the switch forward or backward, you can respectively extend or remove, changing the convexity of the contour of the backrest, the upholstery in the lumbar area.
This ensures an extremely effective support of the lumbar spine along its entire natural contour, with a fatigue-free fit even on long journeys.
4 seat back adjustment
By pressing the switch, the backrest can be moved in the directions indicated by the arrows:
- Forward backrest lift
- Back lowering
Warning: To prevent the safety of the seat belts from being impaired, only recline the front seatbacks while driving with the diagonal webbing of the seat belt in contact with your chest.
5 backrest release
(two-door models only)
Pull the handle up, unlock the backrest and move it forward. Pulling the handle up unlocks and moves the entire seat forward. When folding the backrest, the seat returns to its original position.
Seat cushion adjustment
Thanks to the possibility of this individual adjustment, an optimal support of the hips on the seat cushion is ensured.
To extend, press up on the locking knob located under the front of the pillow and, by pulling the handle, move the pillow forward and set it in the desired position.
To retract - press the locking knob up and move the pillow to the desired position.
Armrest adjustment*
To adjust the position, press the button at the end of the armrest (arrow) and take him down. After that, it is raised until it snaps onto the latch in the desired position.
Remember that when the armrest is lowered to the stop, the mobility of the forearm is limited. Therefore, when driving around the city, do not lower the armrest.
Headrests
The headrests are height and tilt adjustable. They should be set according to height. Properly installed head restraints in combination with seat belts provide effective protection.
Height adjustment
Grab the head restraint with both hands and slide it up or down.
Optimum protective effect is achieved when the top edge of the head restraint is at least at or above eye level.
Removal and installation of head restraints
Standard seat
To remove, pull the head restraint up to the stop, press the button (arrow) on the left arm and at the same time remove the head restraint.
To install, insert and slide the head restraint rods into the guide holes until they are audibly engaged.
Sports seat "Recaro"*
To remove the head restraint, press both safety rings down at the same time (refer to illustration) and remove the headrest.
To install, insert and slide the head restraint rods into the guide holes until they are audibly engaged.
Backseat
Increasing the size of the luggage compartment
To increase the size of the trunk, both backrests can be folded forward together, or each separately.
Folding the rear seat
1. Remove the rear head restraints.
2. With a loop (1) at the end of the seat, lift and pull the seat cushion forward.
3. Take the pillow from her backside (2) and fold up so that the cushion is in a vertical position in front of the front seatback.
4. Pull the release handle (A) in the direction indicated by the arrow.
5. Fold the back forward.
6. Fold the backrest forward so that the folded backrest and the bottom of the trunk are at the same level - refer to the illustration.
Returning the rear seat to its original position
When returning the backrest to its original position, make sure that the seat belts of the side seats are in the belt guide channel. Otherwise, the belts may be pinched and damaged.
7. Set the rear seat back to its original position.
8. Return the seat cushion to its original position and move it fully back. Then push down the front of the seat cushion until it locks into place. While doing this, hold the waist belt up, otherwise it will fall between the backrest and the seat, which will make it impossible to use it.
Warning: The back of the rear seat must be securely locked in place so that sudden braking does not shift the luggage load forward.
