Gener al information
Warning!
The seat may move unexpectedly if you
attempt to adjust while driving. This could
cause sudden loss of control, resulting in
serious personal inj ury or death .
Do not adjust seats while the vehicle is in
motion. The backrest locks must be engaged
at all times while the vehicle is in motion.
Warning!
Safet y belts only offer protection when
the b ackrest is upright and the belt s are
properly positioned on the body. Improperly

by passengers in an excessively reclined

death in an accident.
Do not operate the car w i th the driver or

Seat position
An ergonomically correct sitting position is
important for safe and fatigue -free driving. We
recommend the following procedure for adjustin g
the driver’s seat to suit i ndividual requirements:
1. Vehicles with manual transmission:
Adjust the seat until, with the clutch pedal
fully depressed, your leg remains at a sli ght
angle . Vehicles with Tiptronic S: Adjust the
seat until, with your left foot on the footrest,
your left leg remains at a slight angle.
2. Rest yo ur outstretched arm on the steering
wheel. Set the bac krest angle and the steer-
ing-wheel posi tion so that your wrist rests
on the outer rim o f the steering wheel. At
the same time, the shoulders must still be in
noticeable co n tact with the backrest.
3. Adjust the seat height to give yourself enough
headroom and a good overview of the vehicle.
4. Electrically adj ustable seat: Adjust the seat
angle until your thighs rest lightly on the seat
cushion.
