WARNING

Incorrect use of the steering wheel position adjustment and incorrect adjustment of the steering wheel can cause serious or fatal

injuries.

● After adjusting the steering wheel, always move the lever → Fig. 1 1 up firmly. This prevents the steering wheel from moving

accidentally while the vehicle is in motion.

● Never adjust the steering wheel when the vehicle is in motion. If you determine that adjustment is necessary when driving, stop

the vehicle safely and adjust the steering wheel to the correct position.

● The steering wheel must always point towards the chest and not towards the face. This ensures that the driver front airbag

provides maximum protection in the event of an accident.

● While driving, always keep both hands on the outside of the steering wheel at the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock positions → Fig. 2. This

reduces the risk of injury if the driver front airbag is triggered.

● Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o’clock position, or in any other manner, e.g. at the hub of the steering wheel. If the driver

front airbag is triggered, you could receive severe injuries to the arms, hands and head.

The following section describes the options for adjusting the front seats. Always ensure that your sitting position is correct (→ Sitting

position).

WARNING

Driving with an incorrect seating position caused by wrongly adjusted seats can lead to serious injuries.

● Always adjust the front seats to their correct position before any journey, and ensure that all passengers have fastened their seat

belts correctly.

● Push the front passenger seat as far back as possible.

WARNING

Incorrect adjustment of the seats can cause accidents and serious injuries.

● Adjust the seats only when the vehicle is stationary. The seats could change position unexpectedly if you attempt to reposition

them while the vehicle is in motion so that you lose of control of the vehicle as a result. Furthermore, an incorrect sitting position

is adopted while adjusting the seat.

● Adjust the height and angle of the front seats or move them forwards and backwards only when there is no-one in the adjustment

range of the seats.

● The adjustment range of the seats must not be restricted by any items.

● The areas for adjusting and locking the seats must not be soiled.

WARNING

Any lighters in the vehicle could be damaged or accidentally lit. This could lead to serious burns and other injuries.

● Before adjusting the seats, always make sure that there is no cigarette lighter on or near the movable parts of the seat.

● Do not touch the seats with sharp-edged objects. Sharp objects, such as zips, rivets on clothing or belts, may damage surfaces.

Open Velcro fasteners may also cause damage.
