# Information on Steering
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The power steering provided by the electromechanical steering system automatically adjusts to the vehicle speed, steering torque and steering angle of the wheels. The electromechanical steering functions only when the vehicle's drive system is activated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You will need considerably more strength than normal to steer the vehicle if the power steering is reduced or has failed completely.

# Electronic steering column lock
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The steering column is locked electronically:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Stop the vehicle.
|
||
|
|
2. Switch on the electronic parking brake.
|
||
|
|
3. When the ignition is active, press the starter button once.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Or: open the driver door. The ignition is switched off when the door is opened. The steering column is locked.

# WARNING
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the power steering is not working, the steerability of the vehicle will be significantly reduced due to a stiff steering wheel. This can lead to a loss of vehicle control, accidents, serious injuries and death.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The power steering only functions when the vehicle's drive system is activated.

Switch on the ignition when the vehicle is towed so that the turn signals, horn, wipers and window washer system can be used.
