Tilt steering (if equipped)

A tilt steering wheel allows you to
adjust the steering wheel before you
drive.You can also raise it to the
highest level to give your legs more
room when you exit and enter the
vehicle.

The steering wheel should be posi-
tioned so that it is comfortable for
you to drive, while permitting you to
see the instrument panel warning
lights and gauges.

To change the steering wheel angle,
pull down (

) the lock release lever,

adjust the steering wheel to the
desired angle (

), then pull up the

lock-release lever to lock the steering
wheel in place.
Be sure to adjust the steering wheel
to the desired position before driving.

WARNING

• Never adjust the angle of

steering wheel while driving.
You may lose your steering
control and cause severe per-
sonal injury or accidents.

• After adjusting,

push the

steering wheel both up and
down to be certain it is locked
in position.
