When adjusting the steering wheel to a comfortable position, adjust the steering wheel so that it points toward your chest, not your face. Make sure you can see the instrument cluster warning lights and gauges. After locking the lever, push and pull the steering wheel up and down to make sure it is locked in position. Always adjust the steering wheel position before driving.

WARNING

NEVER adjust the steering wheel while driving. This may result in loss of vehicle control, which could cause an accident.

To adjust the steering wheel angle and height:

1. Pull down the lock release lever (1).

2. Adjust the steering wheel to the desired angle (2) and distance forward/rearward (3).

3. Pull up the lock release lever to lock the steering wheel in place.

Information

Sometimes the lock release lever may not engage fully. This may occur when the locking mechanism gears are not fully meshed. If this happens, pull down the lock release lever, readjust the steering wheel again, then pull the lock release lever up to lock the steering wheel in place.

CAUTION

When adjusting the steering wheel height, do not push or pull on the wheel forcibly, as the mechanism may be damaged.
