dist

ance of at least 25 cm between the
steering wheel and the centre of your chest
››› Fig. 72.
– Move the driver's seat forwards or back-
ward

– Ensure that you can reach the highest point
of the s
t

eering wheel.
– Adjust the head restraint so that its upper
edge is

at the same level as the top of your
head, or as close as possible to the same
level as the top of your head ››› Fig. 73.
– Move the seat backrest to an upright posi-
tion so that

your back rests completely
against it.

Adjus t
the driver's seat so that there is at
least 25 cm distance between the centre of
the chest and the centre of the steering
wheel ››› Fig. 72. If you are sitting closer than
25 cm, the airbag system cannot protect you
properly.
● If your physical constitution prevents you
from maint
aining the minimum distance of 25
cm, contact a specialised workshop. The
workshop will help you decide if special spe-
cific modifications are necessary.
● When driving, always hold the steering
wheel with both h
ands on the outside of the
ring at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions.
This reduces the risk of injury when the driver
airbag is triggered.
● Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock
position, or in any other manner (e.g.
in the centre of the steering wheel). In such
cases, if the airbag is triggered, you may sus-
tain injuries to the arms, hands and head.
● To reduce the risk of injury to the driver
during sud
den braking manoeuvres or an ac-
cident, never drive with the backrest tilted far
back! The airbag system and seat belts can
only provide optimal protection when the
backrest is in an upright position and the
driver is wearing his or her seat belt correct-
ly.
● Adjust the head restraint properly to ach-
ieve optima
l protection. Adjusting the steering wheel position

Set the driver seat in such a way that the
pedals can be fully depressed with your legs
slightly bent.
Set the driver seat backrest so that you can
reach the upper point of the steering wheel
with your arms slightly bent.
The correct seat position is very important
for:
● reaching all of the controls safely and
quick ly

,
● a relaxed posture that will not produce fati-
gue,
● maximum protection from the seat belts
and airbag sys
tem WARNING
● Adjus t

the driver seat only when the vehi-
cle is stationary. Risk of accident!
● Be careful when adjusting the front seats!
Carel
ess and uncontrolled adjustment can
cause injuries. ●
The bac k

rests must not be reclined too far
back while driving. This could limit the effect
of the seat belts and the airbag system. Risk
of injury!
● Never transport more than the permitted
amount of
people in your vehicle.
● Every occupant in the vehicle must properly
fas
ten and wear the seat belt belonging to
his or her seat. Children must be protected
with an appropriate child restraint system
››› page 73, Transporting children safely.
● The front seats, head restraints and seat
belts mu
st always be adjusted to the size of
the vehicle occupant to provide you and your
passengers with the greatest possible protec-
tion.
● Your feet should remain in the footwell
while the
vehicle is moving; never rest them
on the dash panel, on the window or on the
seat! This also applies to passengers. An in-
correct sitting position exposes you to an in-
creased risk of injury in case of a sudden
braking or an accident. If the airbag is trig-
gered, you could sustain severe injuries due
to an incorrect sitting position!
● It is important for the driver and front pas-
senger t
o keep a distance of at least 25 cm
from the steering wheel and dash panel. Fail-
ure to respect the minimum distance means
that the airbag will not protect you. Risk of
fatal injury if triggered!
● Objects must not be placed in the footwell,
as they
could move to the area of the pedals
in the event of a braking manoeuvre or
change of direction. This would prevent the clutch, brake or accelerator from being press-
ed.
●
Do not place any items on the front passen-
ger se at

other than those allowed (e.g. child
seat). Risk of accident! Note
After a certain time, the backrest angle ad-
ju stment

mechanism may gain a certain
amount of play. 131
