    1. 10.1.1. Operate the seat control switch until 1 adjuster reaches a full-forward position.
    2. 10.1.2. Detach the horizontal drive cable from the adjuster which has reached a full-forward position.
    3. 10.1.3. Operate the seat forward until the other adjuster reaches a full-foward position.
    4. 10.1.4. Connect the horizontal drive cable.
    5. 10.1.5. Inspect the horizontal travel to the seat.
  2. Front or rear vertical travel
    1. 10.2.1. Operate the seat control switch until one adjuster has reached a fully raised position at both the front and the rear vertical travel limits.
    2. 10.2.2. Disconnect both of the vertical drive cables from the adjuster which has reached the fully raised position.
    3. 10.2.3. Operate the seat control switch until the other adjuster reaches the fully raised position at both of the front and the rear vertical limits.
    4. 10.2.4. Connect the previously removed front and rear vertical drive cables.
    5. 10.2.5. Inspect the vertical travel by operating the adjusters through 1 or 2 complete cycles.

      The above operation may be repeated on a "as required basis," if the adjusters do not appear to be in phase after the test cycle.
