Abstract
Adjusting arrangement for a steering column tube of a steering system of a motor vehicle having a swivellably disposed clamping lever which, in a released position, unblocks or, in a locked position, blocks a longitudinal or vertical displacement of the steering column tube, and has an actuating device for the manual releasing or locking of the clamping lever, which actuating device has a grip arrangement which, in a vehicle-fixed mounted condition, is accessible from a driver seat position. A guide rail arrangement is positioned on the steering column tube and is aligned in the longitudinal direction of the steering column tube. An adjusting slide block is displaceably held on the guide rail arrangement. The slide block is moved by the grip arrangement and is connected with the clamping lever.
