General: - Electric Driver's Seat

Can the Driver's seat be adjusted manually if the electrics pack up for any reason?
The Vauxhall Omega I had before my V70 could be adjusted using a long extension & socket.

Have you checked the fuse is OK, in the compartment at the end of the dash?
No.5, 30A

Don't think there is a manual override on these seats.
I was looking at mine last week and never noticed anything for manual adjustment.

Thanks Gary, actually my seat is working fine, it just struck me the other day
what I would do if say, the seat motor failed as I always move it all the way back to get out of the car.

Think you'd have to be taping pringle cans to the bottom of your shoes
