9 Warning
Only drive with the seat correctly
adjusted.

the backrest as possible. Adjust the
distance between the seat and the
pedals so that legs are slightly
angled when pressing the pedals.
Slide the front passenger seat as
far back as possible.
■ Sit with shoulders as far back
against the backrest as possible.
Set the backrest rake so that it is

bent. Maintain contact between
shoulders and the backrest when
