Adjusting the steering wheel

Depending on the vehicle, the steering wheel height are adjustable.

Push the lever 1 downwards and set the steering wheel to the desired position, then raise the lever to lock the steering wheel.

Make sure that the steering wheel is correctly locked.

Power-assisted steering

Never drive with an inadequately charged 12V battery.

Variable power assisted steering

The variable power-assisted steering system is equipped with an electronic control system which alters the level of assistance to suit the vehicle speed.

Steering is made easier during parking manoeuvres (for added comfort) while the force needed to steer increases progressively as the speed rises (for enhanced safety at high speeds).

Special case

Depending on the vehicle, in the event of a battery fault (disconnected, discharged battery, etc.), a reset of the steering wheel angle must be carried out. To do this:

• the vehicle stationary and on flat ground;
• with the driver alone in the vehicle, start the engine: the warning light and/or, depending on the vehicle, the « Turn steering wheel fully right and left » message are/is displayed on the instrument panel;
• turn the steering wheel fully to the left, then to the right by exerting pressure upon arrival at the stop. Turn off the ignition and wait about one minute. At the next engine starts, the indicator and/or, depending on the vehicle, the message will switch off.
