Front Seat - Vehicles With: Recaro Seats







The front seat frames are common to both the coupe and convertible and are equipped with the following:
- Seat control switch
- Front seat cushion front height adjustment
- Front seat cushion rear height adjustment
- Front seat backrest adjustment
- Front seat head restraint adjustment - vehicles without sport seats
- Lumbar adjustment
- Front seat forward and backward adjustment
- Side air bag module
- Front seat backrest heating
- Front seat cushion heating

WARNING: Prior to removal of the front seats and before disconnecting the front seat wiring harness electrical connectors (which includes the side air bag module electrical connectors), the battery ground cable should be disconnected and a period of at least one minute allowed to elapse. The same amount of care should be taken when handling and storing the front seats, as would be taken when handling and storing air bag modules.


The driver and passenger front seats, although almost identical, have some unique components. The front driver seat has a seat position sensor and the front passenger seat has a weight sensing system. In both instances the components form an integral part of the air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS).

Seat Control Switch







The front seat control switches are installed in the outboard side of both the driver and passenger front seats.

Front Seat Head Restraint - Vehicles Without: Recaro Seats

NOTE: Left-hand seat backrest shown, right-hand seat backrest similar.







The front seat head restraint position is controlled by three components. The front seat head restraint control module, the front seat head restraint motor and the front seat head restraint control switch.

Seat Backrest Tilt Feature - Vehicles Without: Recaro Seats

NOTE: The front seat head restraint will lower in the event that the seat backrest tilt microswitch fails. In this condition, the front seat head restraint will not work until the front seat is tilted forward, responding to the front seat latch microswitch changing state.







The front seat head restraint control module controls the front seat head restraint motor by responding to the status of three seat control switches. The front seat backrest tilt microswitch, the front seat latch microswitch and the front seat head restraint switch.

The front seat head restraint automatically lowers when the front seat backrest is tilted forward. This feature is controlled by two microswitches. The front seat backrest tilt knob actuates the front seat backrest tilt microswitch causing the front seat head restraint to fully retract. When the front seat backrest is returned to the normal driving position, the front seat latch microswitch causes the front seat head restraint to return to its previous position. The vehicle occupant can position the front seat head restraint to suit their stature by pressing the front seat head restraint switch which is the center switch of the front seat control switch.

Rear Seats







The rear seat frames are not common between the coupe and convertible. They are wire framed units trimmed to match the front seats. There is no provision for rear seat adjustment on either model.

Child seat lower International Standards Organization fix (ISOfix) anchors are fitted.
