Principle
Removal or incorrect adjustment of head re-
straints can cause injuries in the head and
neck area. There is a risk of injury.
At the end of a trip, the system informs the
driver of the possible presence of occupants on
the rear seats.
▷
Before driving, install the removed head
restraints on the occupied seats.
General information
▷
Adjust the head restraint so its center
supports the back of the head at as

If a door with access to the rear seat row is
operated within 30 minutes before starting a
drive, a notice appears on the control display
and a signal tone sounds at the end of the
drive.

Adjust the distance so that the head re-
straint is as close as possible to the back
of the head. Adjust the distance via the
backrest tilt as needed.
If the drive is continued within 30 minutes, the
notice is displayed again after the drive is com-
plete.
