The tilt and telescopic steering wheel allows you to adjust the steering wheel position before driving. You can also raise it to provide more legroom when exiting and entering the vehicle.

The steering wheel should be positioned so that you can comfortably operate the wheel while seeing the warning lights and gauges on the instrument panel.

WARNING

  • Never adjust the steering wheel angle or height while driving. You may lose steering control, which could result in serious injury or an accident.
  • After adjusting, push the steering wheel up and down to make sure it is locked in position.

To adjust the steering wheel tilt, pull down the release lever (1), adjust the steering wheel to the desired angle (2) and height (3), then pull up the lock lever to lock the steering wheel. Be sure to adjust the steering wheel to the proper position before driving.
