Height adjustment
To raise the seat: whilst sitting, move the lever B
upwards (front part of the seat) or the lever C (rear
part of the seat) and shift your body weight away from
the part of the seat to be raised.
SEATS
Any adjustments should only be carried

WARNING
The fabric covers on your vehicle have
been dimensioned to be resistant to
normal wear and tear. Some precautions
are however needed. Avoid prolonged rubbing
against clothing accessories, such as metal
buckles, bosses, Velcro strips and the like, which
by applying a high pressure on the fabric in
a small area could cause the breakage of some
threads and damage the upholstery.

backwards: in driving position your arms should rest on
the rim of the steering wheel.
Once you have released the adjustment

unexpectedly and make you lose control of the
vehicle.
