the column. When the steering has
been adjusted to the desired position,
move the lever fully up to re-lock the
column.
- The steering column can be adjusted,
up, down, in or out.
POWER STEERING

Power assistance may be reduced to
protect the system. This may be required

Full steering assistance should return when
the system has been allowed to cool. If
full steering assistance does not return,
consult a Retailer/Authorised Repairer.

heating. Press again to turn off.
Note: If the steering wheel heater is
operating when ECO Program is selected,

automatically. The steering wheel heater
can be switched on again but this may
