Abstract
An adjustable vehicle seat () includes a seat part () and a backrest () which is pivotable relative to the seat part via a backrest adjustment fitting () and is lockable in a plurality of angular positions. A locking device () locks the seat part to a vehicle structure. An unlocking lever () transmits an unlocking movement to the locking device. A first interlock element (), with the fitting unlocked, prevents a movement of the unlocking lever for unlocking the locking device and with the locking device unlocked, prevents an unlocking of the backrest adjustment fitting. The first interlock element, as a blocking lever, is connected to a transmission rod () for rotation therewith, to unlock the fitting. The unlocking lever has or interacts with a blocking element () which, when the locking device; is unlocked, prevents a movement of the blocking lever for unlocking the backrest adjustment fitting.
