Kia Optima: Driver position memory system (for power seat) / Driver position memory system reset
If the Driver position memory system reset fails to work, initialize the system
as follows.
How to initialize:
1. Stop the car and open the driver’s door with the Engine start/stop button
in ON and the automatic shift lever in P (parking) position.
2. Pull the driver’s seat forward as far as possible and have the seatback upright
as much as possible using driver’s seat forward adjustment and seatback angle (recline)
movement switches.
3. Push SET button and seat foreward movement switch button for 2 seconds simultaneously.
CAUTION
- If alarm sounds and driver seat adjustment stops while initialization
is in process, restart initialization.
- Make sure that there are no obstacles around the driver seat before proceeding
with initialization.
- After initialization is completed, adjust the seats so they conform to
your ideal driving position and save the customized seat settings.
Initialization in the process :
1. Initialization begins as the alarm sounds.
2. The seat and seatback will automatically move backwards. The alarm sound will
continue while the system is in operation.

process will come to a stop and the alarm sound will stop as well.
