3. Installation

NOtICE
The interplay between the racing shell and the
adapter is crucial to how the entire seat system
behaves.
„ Mount the RECARO P1300GT racing shell
only together with the independently tested
RECARO adapters 7221391 or 7308864.
Only this provides the necessary safety in
motor sports.

3.1. Positioning the racing shell in the vehicle

„ Select the most comfortable seat position for
yourself that is safest for driving the vehicle:
You must be able to completely hold the top
edge of the steering wheel without lifting yourself
out of the seat with your back.
Your knee must still be slightly angled when the
clutch or brake pedal is fully pressed.
„ Make sure that the restraint systems and
the roll cage are correctly installed (see the
manufacturer's installation instructions).
