Clutch pedal too high- how to adjust

Hi. My new 480 has a really high clutch pedal (about 50cm higher than the brake pedal) I've yet to get a Haynes manual for the car- in the mean time can someone please give me some instruction as to how I can adjust the pedal so it's a bit lover? Thanks in advance <p></p><i></i>

Clutch pedal height

How high should the clutch pedal be? I test drove one the other day and it was REALLY high, i.e I had to lift my whole leg up to get my foot on the clutch? <p></p><i></i>
