HEAD RESTRAINT ADJUST-

MENT

s01aa04

WARNING

. Never drive the vehicle with the

head restraints removed because

they are designed to reduce the

risk of serious neck injury in the

event that the vehicle is struck from

the rear. Also, never install the

head restraints backwards. Doing

so will prevent the head restraints

from functioning as intended.

Therefore, when the head re-

straints are removed, all head

restraints must be reinstalled

properly to protect vehicle occu-

pants.

. All occupants, including the driver,

should not operate a vehicle or sit

in a vehicle’s seat until the head

restraints are placed in their proper

positions in order to minimize the

risk of neck injury in the event of a

crash.

. The front seat head restraints are

designed to be installed into the

front seats only. The rear seat head

restraints are designed to be in-

stalled into the rear seats only. Do

not attempt to install the front seat

head restraints into the rear seats,

or the rear seat head restraints into

the front seats.

Both the driver’s seat and front passen-

ger’s seat are equipped with head re-

straints. Both head restraints are adjus-

table in the following ways.
