Kia Picanto: Seats / Front seat adjustment

Forward and backward

To move the front seat forwards or backwards, adjust its position along the runners as follows:

1. Pull the seat slide adjustment lever upwards and keep it raised to release the seat.

2. Slide the seat forwards or backwards until it reaches the position you require.

3. Release the lever, then check that the seat has locked securely into place.

Complete the adjustment before driving your Kia Picanto. Without touching the release lever, try to move the seat forwards and backwards to confirm that the lock is engaged. If the seat moves along its runners, it is not securely locked and must be checked again before you set off.

Seatback angle

To adjust the recline angle of the front seatback:

1. Lean forwards slightly to take your weight off the backrest, then lift the seatback recline lever.

2. Carefully lean back against the seatback and guide it to the desired angle, keeping its movement controlled.

3. Release the lever and make sure the backrest is locked. The lever must return fully to its original position for the seatback locking mechanism to engage.

Seat cushion height (for driver’s seat): (if equipped)

Use the height adjustment lever on the outer side of the driver’s seat cushion to raise or lower the seating position. Operate the lever repeatedly in the appropriate direction until the cushion reaches the required height.

• To lower the seat cushion, push the lever down several times.

• To raise the seat cushion, pull the lever up several times.
