Abstract
A device to adjust a contour of a vehicle seat with contour adjustment, may include at least one air cushion connected to a pump via a supply line, a first valve for opening and closing the supply line, and a control and evaluation unit to determine an air volume being supplied to the at least one air cushion via an operating time of the pump and to correlate the air volume being supplied to the at least one air cushion with a contour of the vehicle seat. A related method for adjusting a contour of a vehicle seat with contour adjustment equipped with such a device, may include determining an air volume being supplied to the at least one air cushion via the operating time of the pump, and the air volume being supplied to the at least one air cushion is correlated with a contour of the vehicle seat.
