Driver’s and passenger’s seats

Warning

G

Only adjust the seats when the vehicle is
stationary and the handbrake is applied.
You could otherwise lose control of the
vehicle as a result of the seat moving and
cause an accident.

Warning

G

Make sure that nobody can become
trapped as the seat is adjusted. Never
place your hands under the seat or near to
moving parts.

Your seat must be adjusted in such a way
that you can wear the seat belt correctly
(

୴ page 39).

Observe the following points:

ț Position the backrest as vertically as

possible and sit upright.

Warning (Continued)

G

ț Avoid seat positions that do not allow

the seat belt to be routed correctly.
The shoulder section of the seat belt
must be routed across the middle of
your shoulder and must fit closely
across your chest. The lap section of
the belt must be routed as low as pos-
sible across your pelvic area, i.e.
across your hip joints. Never drive
with the backrest tilted too far back.

ț Your arms should be slightly bent when

you are holding the steering wheel.
