Citroen C3: Ease of use and comfort / Correct driving position

For safety reasons, adjustments must only be made when the vehicle is stationary.

Before taking to the road and to make the most of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and controls, carry out these adjustments in the following order:

• head restraint height.
• seat backrest angle.
• seat cushion height.
• longitudinal seat position.
• steering wheel height.
• rear view mirror and door mirrors.

Once these adjustments have been made, check that the instrument panel can be viewed correctly from your driving position.

Height adjustment

• Upward: pull the head restraint up to the desired position; the head restraint can be felt to click into position.
• Downward: press lug A to lower the head restraint.

The adjustment is correct when the upper edge of the head restraint is level with the top of the head.

Removing a head restraint

• Pull the head restraint fully up.
• Press lug A to release the head restraint and raise it fully.
• Stow the head restraint securely.

Refitting a head restraint

• Insert the head restraint rods into the guides in the corresponding seat backrest.
• Push the head restraint down as far as it will go.
• Press the lug A to release the head restraint and push it down.
• Adjust the height of the head restraint.

Never drive with the head restraints removed; they should be in place and adjusted for the occupant of the seat.
