Driver's seat
Attention! To ensure safety, adjust the seats only when the vehicle is stationary.
Install the driver's seat as follows:
- adjust the position of the seat in the longitudinal plane so that the pedals can be squeezed out completely with legs slightly bent at the knees;
Attention! No objects should be placed on the floor in front of the driver's seat, as in the event of emergency braking or even a small impact, they may be under the pedal and make driving difficult.
- adjust the seatback position so that the backrest is fully adjacent to the back, and the upper point of the steering wheel can be reached with arms slightly bent at the elbows.
Front passenger seat
Install the front passenger seat as follows:
- adjust the seatback position so that it is close to vertical;
- feet should be comfortably on the floor with the seat as far back as possible.

To put it back in place, insert the headrest guides into the bushings strictly along the axis of the backrest.
A special mechanism built into the back protects the cervical vertebrae from injury.
