Volkswagen Polo Owners Manual: Adjusting the steering wheel position

Fig. 41 Adjusting the steering wheel position
mechanically
First read and observe the introductory information
and safety warnings
Adjust the steering wheel position before setting off and only when the vehicle
is stationary.
- Adjust the steering wheel so that you can hold it on the outside of the
ring (at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions) with both hands and slightly
bent arms.
- Push the lever up firmly until it lines up with the steering column .

WARNING
Incorrect use of the steering column position adjustment and incorrect adjustment
of the steering wheel can cause serious or fatal injuries.
- After adjusting the steering column, always move lever up so that it engages
securely. This prevents the steering column from moving spontaneously while
the vehicle is in motion.
- Never adjust the steering wheel when the vehicle is in motion. If you determine
that a readjustment is necessary, stop the vehicle safely and adjust the steering
wheel to the correct position.
- The steering wheel must always point towards the chest and not towards the
face. This ensures that the driver front airbag provides maximum protection
in the event of an accident.
- While driving, always keep both hands on the outside of the steering wheel,
at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions. This reduces the risk of injury if
the driver front airbag is triggered.
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position, or in any other
manner, e.g. on the hub of the steering wheel. If the driver airbag is triggered,
you could receive severe injuries to the arms, hands and head.
