WARNING
●
Never adjust the driver or front passenger
seat while the vehicle is in motion. While ad-
justing your seat, you will assume an incor-
rect sitting position. Risk of accidents. Adjust
the driver or front passenger seat only when
the vehicle is stationary.
●
To reduce the risk of injury to the driver and
front passenger in case of a sudden braking
or an accident, never drive with the backrest
tilted towards the rear. The maximum protec-
tion of the seat belt can be achieved only
when the backrests are in an upright position
and the driver and front passenger have prop-
erly adjusted their seat belts. The further the

height into forwards/backwards position. In-
juries can be caused if the seat height is ad-
justed without due care and attention.
●
To move the seat forwards and backwards,
pull upwards and not sideways on the lever,
as the force exerted on it in that direction
could damage it.
