How to operate your RECARO seat
6. Adjusting the distance of the seat
from the pedals
Figure A
There are two possibilities here, depending
on the vehicle type in question. Your
RECARO seat has been fitted with either a
RECARO adapter and the standard seat
rails or with a RECARO base frame and
RECARO seat rails.
Risk of pinching
Adjusting the length of the seat
changes the amount of space requir-
ed. Ensure that no-one reaches into
the area where adjustment is taking
place or puts their feet under the seat
or near the seat rails.

In this case, you can move your RECARO
seat forward and back in exactly the same
way as with a standard seat. If in doubt,
please refer to the operating instructions for

In this case, adjust your RECARO seat
using the adjustment bar.
To release the seat locking mechanism, lift
the adjustment bar so that the seat can be
pushed forward or back. Release the
adjustment bar once you have reached the
desired position. Make sure that the seat
audibly engages on both sides and that the
adjustment bar returns to its original
position.
Electrical
If electrical length adjustment is available in
the vehicle as standard or is offered as an
option from RECARO, it can be operated
with the switch.
