You can adjust your steering wheel either
manually or electrically, depending on your
vehicle's equipment.

Risk of accident
If you drive without the steering wheel ad-
justment mechanism being locked in posi-
tion, you could be startled as a result of the
steering wheel moving unexpectedly. How-
ever, the steerability of the vehicle is not af-
fected.
Only adjust the steering wheel when the ve-
hicle is stationary and do not pull away until
the steering wheel adjustment mechanism
is locked in position.
The electrically adjustable steering wheel*
can be adjusted when the key is removed
from the ignition lock and the driver's door
is open. Do not, therefore, leave children un-
supervised in the vehicle as they could be-
come trapped as the steering wheel is ad-
justed.
