Proper seating position and safety belt use is always important, regardless of whether you are on the highway or driving off-road.
Safety belts save lives – on the road and off.
Distance to the steering wheel
When driving off-road, you may want to sit a little differently than you would for normal highway driving.
Depending on the terrain, you may need more strength to control the steering wheel because of the higher forces that can come up from the front wheels.
Sit so that you can clearly see the terrain in front of you, especially when you are driving up or down slopes. Never sit so that the distance from the center of your breast bone to the center of the airbag cover on the steering wheel is less than 10 inches ⇒ Adjusting the seating position .
Suitable shoes
Never wear shoes with a slippery sole or high-heels when driving off-road, and never drive off-road barefoot. Always wear shoes that support your feet properly and give you a good feel for the pedals.
Warning
Not wearing safety belts, or wearing them improperly will increase the risk of serious injuries when driving off-road. Holding the steering wheel improperly will reduce your ability to control the vehicle and can also increase the risk of injury when driving off-road.Volkswagen Tiguan Owners Manual > Vehicle tool kit: Contents
