steering column prob?

how many positions can the steering wheel be set at? i know my telescopic adjuster thingy is working fine, but it seems like my height adjuster thingy only locks on the lowest setting?? anyone else has this problem?

The lever on the side is just a release, to tilt it up, then it pulls back to where it was set.
To adjust the height, pull down the lever on the bottom of the column, set it were you want it the push the lever back up.
Then use the release to lift it for entry/exit.

I don't like those automated settings, ever get into some 4'5'' old ladys fancy Lincon to bring it in for an oil change and the the seat starts to crush you into dash board as the steering wheel crushes into your groin? Very scary!
