Seats

Selecting the correct seat position
A correct sitting position is important to ensure safe
and fatigue-free driving. To adjust the position of the
driver's seat, proceed as follows:
1. Adjust the seat height to ensure that you have
enough headroom and a good overview of the
vehicle.
2. Move the seat in the fore-and-aft direction so
that you can reach and press the pedals without
stretching your legs out completely. Your foot
should cover the entire surface of the pedal.
3. Grip the upper part of the steering wheel. Set the
backrest angle and the steering wheel position
so that your arms are almost outstretched. Your
shoulders must still be touching the backrest.
4. Correct the fore-and-aft position of the seat if
necessary.
