Steering Column

STEERING COLUMN ADJUSTMENT

DO NOT attempt to adjust the height or angle of the steering
wheel while the car is in motion. This is extremely dangerous.

Adjust the angle and height of the steering column to suit your
driving position:

Fully release the locking lever.

Hold the steering wheel in both hands and tilt the steering
column up or down to move the wheel into the most
comfortable position.

NOTE:

If it is difficult to move the steering column into a new

position, disengage the steering lock by turning the starter switch to
the first position and align the front wheels straight ahead.

Pull or push the steering wheel closer to, or further away
from, your body.

Once a comfortable driving position has been selected, pull
the locking lever fully up to lock the steering column into its
new position.
