How to Adjust the Steering Wheel Position Properly?

[McLandon]

The top edge of the steering wheel should be approximately at the same height as the driver's shoulders. The fore-and-aft position should ensure comfortable legroom while maintaining a comfortable distance between the driver and the steering wheel. Adjusting the steering wheel's fore-and-aft distance and angle should only be done after confirming that the seat parameters have been properly adjusted to an optimal position. Only when the seat is correctly adjusted can you proceed to adjust the steering wheel. Relevant information about the car steering wheel is as follows: Function: Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. Correct Grip: If the steering wheel is imagined as a clock face, the correct hand position is to place the left hand between the 9 and 10 o'clock positions and the right hand between the 3 and 4 o'clock positions. In the event of a collision, this posture provides better support for the body.
