Adjusting the steering wheel in your Hyundai car can help you find the perfect driving position and improve your comfort and safety. Whether you're tall or short, adjusting the steering wheel can make a big difference in your driving experience. In this article, we'll go over some simple steps to adjust the steering wheel in your Hyundai car.

Step 1: Locate the Steering Wheel Adjustment Lever

The first step in adjusting the steering wheel in your Hyundai car is to locate the adjustment lever. The lever is typically located on the underside of the steering wheel column, near the pedals.

Step 2: Pull the Lever

Once you've located the adjustment lever, pull it towards you. This will release the lock and allow you to adjust the steering wheel.

Step 3: Adjust the Steering Wheel

With the lever released, you can now adjust the steering wheel. Move the steering wheel up, down, forward, or backward until you find the perfect driving position.
