With individually adaptable backrest and cushion contours, active ventilation
and an innovative massage function,
the integral seats of the new Mercedes-Benz CL-Class increase the personal
well-being of the occupants on long journeys.
The seats are designed as integral seats, with seat belt elements included in
positions designed to maximize driver and passenger comfort. The seat itself has
12 positions, with all parts adjustable electrically and independently.
Pneumatic lumbar supports are standard, as are polyurethane foam pads in the
backrest. The seats also are ventilated, utilizing breathable materials and
miniature fans in the backrest and seat cushion. These fans take the cold or hot
air from your vehicle's air circulation system and spreads it throughout the
seat, giving you comfort behind as well as in front.
The massage function for the dynamic multi-contour seat is also a completely
new development by Mercedes specialists. It no longer makes use of the air
chambers with which the seat contours are adjusted, but rather a separate
package of air chambers integrated into the seat padding. This means that the
individual comfort settings are retained. A micro-computer controls the seven
separate massage air chambers, inflating and emptying the air chambers according
to a fixed programme, which passengers in the new CL-Class perceive as a
pleasant, pulsing motion across the entire back. This stimulates the muscles,
improves the circulation and helps to prevent early fatigue.The massage
programme lasts for five minutes and can be restarted at any time once the cycle
has finished. The intensity and speed of the massage function can also be
individually adjusted in four settings, from "slow and gentle" to "fast and
powerful".
