position is correctly adjusted,

 Sit well back in your seat (having
removed your coat or jacket). This
is essential to ensure your back is
positioned correctly.

should be as far back as possible
while still allowing you to fully
depress the clutch pedal. The
seatback should be adjusted so
that your arms are slightly bent
when you hold the steering wheel.
 Adjust the position of your head restraint. For safety reasons, the
top of your head should be in line
with the top of the head restraint.
 Adjust the height of the seat. This
adjustment allows you to select
the seat position which offers you
the best possible view.

Adjusting the seat belts
Sit with your back firmly against the
seatback.
The thorax belt 1should be as close
to the base of your neck as possible
but not on it.
The lap belt 2should be worn flat
over your thighs and against your
pelvis.
The belt should be worn so that it is
as close to your body as possible, i.e.
avoid wearing heavy clothing or
keeping bulky objects under the belts.
