Tilt & telescopic steering wheel
A tilt and telescopic steering wheel allows you to adjust the steering wheel before you drive. You can also raise it to give your legs more room when you exit and enter the vehicle.
The steering wheel should be positioned so that it is comfortable for you to drive, whilst permitting you to see the instrument panel warning lights and gauges.

Never adjust the angle of the steering wheel whilst driving. You may lose steering control and cause severe personal injury, death or accidents.

After adjusting, push the steering wheel both up and down to be certain it is locked in position.
Adjusting steering wheel angle and height
After adjustment, sometimes the lock-release lever may not lock the steering wheel.
It is not a malfunction. This occurs when two gears engage. In this case, adjust the steering wheel again and then lock the steering wheel.
