Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

Every so often (rarely) while driving, I get a little message on my instrument cluster display that says merely "Check Passenger Seat Settings". Anyone else have this or know what it means?

POST 2Original post

Funny, I got this yesterday. Here's what happened. I was taking my wife to lunch; as she got in the car she adjusted the seat rearward and as I drove off the warning popped on. I'm not sure (this is my speculation) but I think the seat wasn't "clicked in" the track because it was flush against the rear wall. I had her move it up a bit and made sure I heard the "click in" and the warning disappeared. Clearly, I have the standard (manual adjust) seats.

POST 3Original post

From the manual: Check passenger’s seat setting: Weight sensing is impaired on the passenger’s seat (Advanced Airbag). When the backrest is in contact with the engine compartment wall, the backrest can warp. Correct the seating position, set the backrest upright, do not support weight on the armrests, or lift on the handles.

POST 5Original post

Awesome I checked and the passenger seat was all the way back. Will adjust and see if this fixes it for good. Thanks!!!

POST 6Original post

Great job, Lexicon!!! Fantastic example of members helping members. Not to mention the reference to the manual, Santa Fe would be so proud.

POST 7Original post

I think that there must be a way to put some sort of mechanical stop on the passenger seat frame, so that the next to the farthest adjustment rearward becomes the farthest. Perhaps Porsche should consider that ... then this wouldn't pop up on every car that we see As it is, whenever someone puts the seat all the way back in my CS, I just tell them that at that setting they aren't going to be protected by the airbag - their choice

Thanks for the kudos. Actually the kudos goes right back to this website. I highly recommend downloading the manual from the files section. I merely opened the 2007 manual in acroread and did a search for "check passenger" and it took me right to this section after about 3 hits. Very useful to have the manual in electronic format, so cheers :cheers: to whomever took the time to capture it.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
