DRIVE APPARATUS FOR ADJUSTING AN INTERIOR ASSEMBLY

It is provided a drive apparatus for adjusting an interior assembly of a vehicle comprises an electromotive adjustment drive for producing an adjustment force, a self-locking adjustment kinematic mechanism for transmitting an adjustment force produced by the adjustment drive to the interior assembly, which adjustment kinematic mechanism can be driven by means of the adjustment drive, and a control device for controlling the adjustment drive. The control device is configured to activate an adjustment mode for adjustment of the interior assembly depending on at least one trigger criterion and, when the adjustment mode is activated, to actuate the adjustment drive with a support current of a magnitude such that the interior assembly can put into motion by means of a user force produced manually on the interior assembly by a user, overcoming the self-locking of the adjustment kinematic mechanism.
