Tilt steering/
Telescope steering (if equipped)

Tilt steering allows you to adjust the
steering wheel before you drive.
You can also raise the steering wheel to
give your legs more room when you exit
and enter the vehicle (if equipped).

The steering wheel should be positioned
so that it is comfortable for you to drive,
while permitting you to see the instru-
ment panel warning lights and gauges.

To change the steering wheel angle, pull
down the lock-release lever (1), adjust
the steering wheel to the desired angle
(2) and height (3, if equipped) then pull
up the lock-release lever to lock the
steering wheel in place. Be sure to adjust
the steering wheel to the desired position
before driving.
