Tilt & telescopic steering allows drivers to ergonomically adjust the steering wheel position to suit their body posture. This can help reduce the potential for fatigue that occurs when driving, especially when driving long distances.
2. Increasing Rider Comfort
The appropriate steering position allows the driver to obtain the most comfortable driving position. That way, the driver can concentrate more fully on the road without any uncomfortable body posture disturbances.
3. Improve Security
An appropriate and comfortable steering position can also help the driver to control the car better. This allows the driver to respond better and more accurately to the steering, especially when driving on winding roads.
Tilt & Telescopic Steering Settings
Some cars have different mechanisms in tilt & telescopic steering settings. But in general, you can use the following steps to adjust tilt & telescopic steering:
- Look for the tilt and telescopic steering control lever or button around your car's steering wheel. Usually, this lever is located at the bottom of the steering wheel or on the panel near the steering wheel.
- Then, adjust the height and depth of the steering wheel using the lever or button according to your wishes.
- After you have finished adjusting the steering wheel position, make sure to test the settings you have made. Make sure the steering wheel is comfortable and suits your body posture when sitting in the driver's seat. Also, make sure that the position provides good visibility and allows you to operate the steering wheel easily.
