Lengthwise direction adjustment fig. 20
Lift lever A and push the seat forwards or backwards: in
the driving position your arms should rest on the rim of
the steering wheel.
Any adjustments should be carried out
only when the vehicle is stationary.
WARNING
Once you have released the adjustment
lever, always check that the seat is
locked on the guides by trying to move it back
and forth. Failure to lock the seat in place could
result in the seat moving suddenly and the
driver losing control of the car.
WARNING
The fabric covers on your vehicle have
been designed to resist normal wear and
tear for a long time. Some precautions
are however needed. Avoid prolonged rubbing
against clothing accessories, such as metal
buckles, 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.
