● Sit with buttocks as far back against the backrest as possible.

seat and the pedals so that legs
are slightly angled when pressing the pedals. Slide the front
passenger seat as far back as
possible.

instruments. There should be at
least one hand of clearance
between head and the roof

lightly on the seat without

Set the backrest rake so that it is
possible to easily reach the

bent. Maintain contact between
shoulders and the backrest when turning the steering wheel. Do
not angle the backrest too far

maximum rake of approx. 25°.
