Gener al information

The seat may move unexpectedly if you
attempt to adjust while driving. This could
cause sudden loss of control, resulti ng in
serious personal injury 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 backrest is upright and the belts are
properly positioned on the body. Improperly

Seat position
An ergonomically correct sitting position is
important for safe and fatigue-free driving. We
recommend the following procedure for adjusting
the driver’s seat to suit individual requirements:
1. Vehicles with manual transmission:
Adjust the seat until, with the clutch pedal
fully depressed, your leg remains at a slight
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 your outstretched arm on the steering
wheel. Set the backrest angle and the steer-
ing-wheel position so that your wrist rests
on the outer rim of the steering wheel. At
the same time, the shoulders must still be in
noticeable contact with the backrest.
3. Adjust the seat height to give yourself enough
headroom and a good overview of the vehicle.
4. Electrically adjustable seat: Adjust the seat
angle until your thighs rest lightly on the seat
cushion.
