Adjusting the Steering Wheel

The steering wheel height and distance from your body can be adjusted so that you can comfortably grip the steering wheel in an appropriate driving posture.
  1. Push down the steering wheel adjustment lever. The steering wheel adjustment lever is under the steering column.
  2. Move the steering wheel up or down, and in or out. Make sure you can see the instrument panel gauges and indicators.
  3. Pull up on the steering wheel adjustment lever to lock the steering wheel in position. After adjusting the position, make sure you have securely locked the steering wheel in place by trying to move it up, down, in, and out.
Warning
Adjusting the steering wheel position while driving may cause you to lose control of the vehicle and be seriously injured in a crash.

Adjust the steering wheel only when the vehicle is stopped.
