Important safety notes

WARNING
Do not adjust the steering wheel while driving.
Adjusting the steering wheel while driving, or driving without the steering wheel adjustment feature locked could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
The electrical steering wheel adjustment feature can be operated at any time.
Therefore, do not leave children unattended in the vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. A child's unsupervised access to a vehicle could result in an accident and/or serious personal injury.
