How to Adjust the Height of a Jaguar Steering Wheel?
2 Answers
There is a small lever right below the steering wheel that can be used to adjust the height of the steering wheel. Align the steering wheel. When the brake pedal is fully depressed, there should still be some bend in the legs; the backrest should not be too upright or semi-reclined.
Adjusting the height of your Jaguar's steering wheel is quite simple, let me guide you step by step. First, park your car without starting it and sit in the driver's seat. Near the steering column below the wheel, you'll find a small lever or switch. Gently pull it downward or push it toward your body to unlock the steering wheel position. Now you can move the steering wheel up or down to find the most comfortable height for you—the reference point is having your arms slightly bent in a natural position, with a clear view of the dashboard and road conditions, without straining your arms or blocking your knees. Once adjusted, push the lever back to its original position to lock it. Remember to only perform this adjustment when the car is parked, as doing it while driving can be distracting and dangerous. Proper adjustment ensures driving comfort and prevents fatigue, especially for long drives in a Jaguar, where the right height is crucial for an optimal driving experience. I used to have it improperly adjusted, leading to shoulder and back pain after long drives, but once I fixed the position, it made a big difference.
