Ease of use and comfort
Driving position
Correct seating position
Adopting a good driving position contributes to
improving driver comfort and protection.
It also optimises interior and exterior visibility as
well as access to controls.
Certain seat adjustments described in this
section depend on the trim level and the country
in which the vehicle is sold.
Driver’s side

Sit fully back in the seat with your pelvis, back
and shoulders in contact with the seat backrest.
Adjust the seat cushion height so that your eyes
are level with the centre of the windscreen.
The head should be at a minimum distance of
10 cm from the roof.
Adjust the longitudinal position of the seat so
that you can fully depress the pedals with legs
slightly flexed.
The distance between the knees and the
dashboard should be at least 10 cm, for easy
access to the dashboard controls.
Adjust the backrest angle to as vertical a position
as possible; never tilt it more than 25°.
Adjust the head restraint so that its upper edge is
level with the top of the head.
Adjust the length of the seat cushion to support
your thighs.
Adjust the lumbar support so that it conforms to
the shape of the spine.
Adjust the steering wheel reach so that it is at
least 25
cm from the sternum and you can hold it
with your arms slightly bent.
Adjust the steering wheel height so that it does
not obstruct the information displayed on the
instrument panel.
As a safety precaution, adjust the seats only when the vehicle is stationary.
Electrically-adjustable seats
Switch the ignition on to enable the
adjustments to be made.
Passenger’s side

Sit fully back in the seat with the pelvis, back and
shoulders in contact with the seat backrest.
Adjust the longitudinal position of the seat so that
you are at a distance of at least 25
cm from the
dashboard.
Adjust the head restraint so that its upper edge is
level with the top of the head.
Before moving off
Adjust the interior and exterior door mirrors to
reduce blind spots.
Fasten the seat belt: place the diagonal belt in
the middle of the shoulder and adjust the lap belt
so that it is tightened across the pelvis.
Ensure that all passengers have fastened their
seat belts correctly.
