Ease of use and comfort
3Correct driving position
For safety reasons, adjustments must
only be made when the vehicle is
stationary.
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and
controls, carry out these adjustments in the
following order:


head restraint height.



seat backrest angle.



seat cushion height.



longitudinal seat position.



steering wheel height.



rear view mirror and door mirrors.

Once these adjustments have been
made, check that the instrument panel
can be viewed correctly from your driving
position.
Front head restraints
Adjusting the height

Upwards:
â–º Pull the head restraint up to the desired
position; you can feel the head restraint clicking
into position.
Downwards:
â–º

Press lug
A to lower the head restraint.
The head restraint is correctly adjusted when its upper edge is level with the top
of the occupant's head.
Removing a head restraint
â–º Pull the head restraint fully up.
â–º Press lug A to release the head restraint and
raise it fully.
â–º

Stow the head restraint securely
.
Refitting a head restraint
â–º Insert the head restraint rods into the guides
in the corresponding seat backrest.
â–º

Push the head restraint fully down.
â–º


Press the lug
A to release the head restraint
and push it down.
â–º

Adjust the height of the head restraint.
Never drive with the head restraints
removed; they should be in place and
adjusted for the occupant of the seat.
Front seats

forwards or backwards.
â–º

Release the control bar to lock the seat in
position on one of the notches.

Ease of use and comfort
3Please note: an incorrectly latched
backrest compromises the safety of
passengers in the event of sudden braking or
an accident.
When repositioning the seat backrest, take
care not to trap the seat belts.
The contents of the boot may be thrown
forwards - risk of serious injury!
Adjustable head restraints
These have just one position for use (up) and
one position for storage (down).
They can be removed and are interchangeable
side to side.
To remove a head restraint:


â–º Pull it upwards as far as possible.
â–º Press on lug A.
Never drive with the headrests removed;
they must be fitted and correctly
adjusted.
Steering wheel
adjustment


â–º When stationary , lower the control to release
the steering wheel.
â–º

Adjust the height and reach to suit your
driving position.
â–º


Pull the control to lock the steering wheel.
For safety reasons, these adjustments
must only be carried out with the vehicle
stationary.
Mirrors
Door mirrors
As a safety measure, the mirrors should be adjusted to reduce the "blind spots".
The objects that you see in the mirrors are
in fact closer than they appear. Take this
into account in order to correctly judge the
distance of vehicles approaching from behind.
Manual adjustment

â–º Move the adjustment lever in any of the four
directions to position the mirror .
When the vehicle is parked, the door mirrors can
be folded in manually.
If the mirror unit has popped out of its initial
position, with the vehicle stationary, push it back
into place manually or use the electric folding
control.
There is no risk of breakage, even in frosty
weather.
