Correct driving position
For safety reasons, adjustments must
only be made when the vehicle is
stationary.
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and
controls, carry out these adjustments in the
following order:
– head restraint height.– seat backrest angle.– seat cushion height.– longitudinal seat position.– steering wheel height and reach.– rear view mirror and door mirrors.

Once these adjustments have been
made, check that the instrument panel
can be viewed correctly from your driving
position.

To return to the normal position, guide the
backrest backwards until it locks into place.
This position, together with that of the rear seats,
allows you to transport long objects inside the
vehicle.
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is nothing that might
prevent the full travel of the seat.
When the front passenger seat is fully folded,
only the outer rear seat behind the driver can
be occupied by a passenger.
Do not place hard, heavy or sharp
objects in the centre of the backrest to
ensure that you don't damage rear lining
behind the backrest.
When sharp deceleration occurs, objects
placed on the folded backrest can turn into
dangerous projectiles.

required:

perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking
medication, etc.).
