Range Rover Evoque: Sitting in the correct position
The driver
and front seat passenger
must not ride with the seat fully
reclined.
Do not adjust
the seat while the
vehicle is moving.
The seat, head restraint, seat belt and airbags,
all contribute to the protection of the user.
Correct use of these components will give you
greater protection. Therefore, you should
always observe the following points:

1. Sit in an upright position with the base of
your spine as far back as possible and the
seatback reclined no more than 30
degrees.
2. Do not move the driver's seat too close to
the steering wheel. Ideally, a minimum
distance of 254mm (10in) is
recommended between the breastbone
and the steering wheel airbag cover. Hold
the steering wheel in the correct position,
with your arms slightly bent.
- Adjust the head restraint so that the top of
the head restraint is above the centre line of
the head.
- Position the seat belt so that it is mid-way
between your neck and your shoulder. Fit
the strap tightly across your hips, not
across your stomach.
- Ensure that your driving position is
comfortable and enables you to maintain
full control of the vehicle.
