WARNING

• For maximum effectiveness in

case of an accident, the headrest

should be adjusted so the middle

of the headrest is at the same

height of the center of gravity of

an occupant's head. Generally,

the center of gravity of most peo-

ple's head is similar with the

height of the top of their eyes.

Also, adjust the headrest as close

to your head as possible. For this

reason, the use of a cushion that

holds the body away from the

seatback is not recommended.

To raise the headrest, pull it up to the

desired position (1). To lower the head-

rest, push and hold the release button (2)

on the headrest support and lower the

headrest to the desired position (3).

The headrest may be adjusted forward to

4 different positions by pulling the head-

rest forward to the desired detent. To

adjust the headrest to it’s furthest rear-

wards position, pull it fully forward to the

farthest position and release it. Adjust the

headrest so that it properly supports the

head and neck.

• Do not operate the vehicle with

the headrests removed as severe

injury to the occupants may

occur in the event of an accident.

Headrests may provide protec-

tion against neck injuries when

properly adjusted.

• Do not adjust the headrest posi-

tion of the driver's seat while the

vehicle is in motion.
