The lever for adjusting the steering col-
umn is under the steering wheel.
Warning
G
Only adjust the steering wheel when the
vehicle is stationary. Only drive with the
steering wheel locked in position.
An incorrectly secured steering wheel
could make it more difficult to steer the
vehicle safely, since the height and fore-
and-aft adjustment could move out of po-
sition when the steering wheel is turned.
You could lose control of the vehicle as a
result, cause an accident and injure your-
self and others.
Warning
G
Never leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle. They could become trapped if
they try to adjust the steering column.
