Seat and steering wheel adjustments
WARNING
•
Adjusting the seat while the vehicle is in
motion is dangerous as the seat may move
more than you intend. Be sure to stop the
vehicle and set the parking brake before
performing any adjustment of the seat.
•
After you have adjusted the seat, gently
move or rock the seat to ensure that it is
locked in the desired position.
•
When adjusting the seat, keep your hands
away from the bottom of the seat and from
moving parts of the seat. Otherwise, you
could suffer an injury by getting your
hands and fingers trapped.
•
When adjusting the angle of the seatback,
keep your back or hand pressed against it.
Otherwise, the seatback could suddenly
return to its original position and injure
you by hitting your face or other body
parts.
