Drivers Seat Not Responding

I was cleaning the leather on the back seats so I put the drivers seat all the way forward and the back all the way forward also. Now after cleaning the back seat the drivers seat won't respond or go back to the original position. The memory doesn't respond either. The controls on the door panel don't respond. I was able to start the car and a dashboard warning said "Lock The Drivers Seat". I can't drive the car with the seat all the way forward. The seat back goes back but not forward. The headrest does not respond. The battery is brand new. No problem with the passenger side controls. Is there some sort of release? I drive a 2005 CLK320 Cabrio (W209). I never had this issue before.

FALSE ALARM - after posting this thread I went back to check the fuses. Before doing so I checked the easy entry lever on the top of the seat and apparently is was not engaged properly causing the malfunction. Now the drivers seat works fine.
