Safe driving
WARNING
An incorrect sitting position of the driver
can lead to severe injuries.
Adjust the driver's seat so that there is at
least 25 cm distance between the centre of
the chest and the centre of the steering
wheel ›› Fig. 84. If you are sitting closer than
25 cm, the airbag system cannot protect you
properly.
If your physical constitution prevents you
from maintaining the minimum distance of 25
cm, contact a specialised workshop. The
workshop will help you decide if special spe-
cific modifications are necessary.
When driving, always hold the steering
wheel with both hands on the outside of the
ring at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions.
This reduces the risk of injury when the driver
airbag is triggered.
Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position, or in any other manner (e.g.
in the centre of the steering wheel). In such
cases, if the airbag is triggered, you may sus-
tain injuries to the arms, hands and head.
To reduce the risk of injury to the driver
during sudden braking manoeuvres or an ac-
cident, never drive with the backrest tilted far
back! The airbag system and seat belts can
only provide optimal protection when the
backrest is in an upright position and the
driver is wearing his or her seat belt correct-
ly.
Adjust the head restraint properly to ach-
ieve optimal protection.

WARNING
Never adjust the position of the steering
wheel when the vehicle is moving, as this
could cause an accident.
Move the lever up firmly so the steering
wheel position does not accidentally change
during driving. risk of accident!
Make sure you are capable of reaching and
firmly holding the upper part of the steering
wheel: risk of accident!
If you adjust the steering wheel so that it
points towards your face, the driver airbag
will not protect you properly in the event of
an accident. Make sure that the steering
wheel points towards your chest.
Correct position for the front passen-
ger
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of
injury in the event of an accident, we recom-
mend the following adjustments for the front
passenger:
Move the front passenger seat back as far
as possible .
Move the seat backrest to an upright posi-
tion so that your back rests completely
against it.
Adjust the head restraint so that its upper
edge is at the same level as the top of your
head, or as close as possible to the same
level as the top of your head ›› page 77.
Always keep both feet in the footwell in
front of the front passenger seat.
Fasten your seat belt securely page 79.
It is possible to deactivate the front passen-
ger airbag in exceptional circumstances
