How to move the steering wheel to its default position
WARNING
Never adjust the steering wheel while the vehicle is moving:
Adjusting the steering wheel while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. Moving it can very
easily cause the driver to abruptly turn to the left or right. This can lead to loss of control or an
accident.
After adjusting the steering wheel position, make sure it is securely locked by trying to move it
up and down:
Driving with the steering wheel not securely lock ed in position is dangerous. If the steering
wheel moves unexpectedly while driving, you coul d lose control of the steering resulting in an
accident.
Lower the lever, move the steering wheel to th e lowest position, and then push it down and
all the way back.
