If the quick-release system is not able to secure the seat post in the
required position (the seat post can be rotated or even pushed into the
saddle tube), release the quick-release mechanism lever, tighten the
regulating screw 2 (see pic.) and then secure once again by lever 3 of
the quick-release mechanism.
When closing the quick-release mechanism you should feel resistance
only as you close lever 3 the last third of the way. Never try to tighten
the seat post using just the regulating screw 2, this could cause the
connection to loosen spontaneously while you are cycling.

Telescopic seat post
A telescopic seat post enables the cyclist to easily change the height of the saddle while cycling, without
having to stop. There is a lever on the handlebars for this purpose – when you press it the seat post
either lowers or rises depending on the pressure placed on the seat post. Then release the lever. Only
use the lever when you are ready to change the saddle height.
