Abstract
A detection is made as to whether a vehicle occupant seated on a vehicle seat of a seating system of a motor vehicle has put on a pair of electronic data glasses. If the vehicle occupant has put on a pair of electronic data glasses, a check is performed to determine whether a predetermined minimum distance exists between the vehicle seat and an interior component of the motor vehicle. If the minimum distance exists, an adjustment range of the seating system is restricted in such a way that it is not possible to fall below the minimum distance. If the minimum distance does not exist, the minimum distance is established by automatically adjusting the seating system and/or outputting a message relating to the noncompliance with the minimum distance.
