Important Points
WARNING
Make all adjustments to the steering
mechanism while the vehicle is stop-
ped. Adjusting the Tilt Steering Wheel
while the vehicle is in motion could
cause loss of control. You wouldn't be
able to steer properly and could have
an accident resulting in death or per-
sonal injury.
• You must read this section
thoroughly and acquaint yourself
with the seat controls.
• The vehicle air pressure must be a
minimum of 100 psi (7 bar).
• Never operate several controls at
once.
• The armrest should be folded away
before entering/leaving the vehicle.
• The co-driver's seat is not suitable
for a child's seat.
• The seat and its component parts
must be checked for wear from
time to time.
• The seat may only be repaired by
trained personnel.
Driver's Seat
Operation:
1. Seat fore/aft adjustment
2. Shock absorber setting: The
suspension characteristics of the seat
(in terms of comfort) can be optimized
by means of the infinitely adjustable
shock absorber (from "hard" to "soft")
for each driving situation.
• Position switch up: minimum
damping ("soft" comfort)
• Position switch down:
maximum damping ("hard"
comfort)
NOTE
The shock absorber must always
be set tight enough to withstand
conditions on a poor road surface.
3. Seat squab angle adjustment
4. Seat height adjustment
5. Entry/exit aid
• Knob down (seat in driving
position): seat drops to its
lowest position (= entry/exit
aid)
• Knob up (with lowered seat):
seat returns to the last set
height
6. Backrest angle adjustment.
