To raise the rear head restraint, pull
upward the head restraint until it clicks. To
lower the head restraint, push down the
head restraint while holding in the lock
lever. If a head restraint must be removed
(for cleaning, replacement, etc.), push in
the lock lever and pull the head restraint all
the way out.
When using the rear center head restraint,
pull it up and lock it securely before driving.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to fold forward the
seatback to provide enough overhead
clearance to remove the head restraint.
WARNING
Do not allow anyone to sit in the rear
center seat with the rear center head
restraint removed or in stowed posi-
tion.
Adjust the head restraint to the position
which places the center of the head
restraint closest to the top of your ears. If
this is not possible for very tall passengers,
adjust the head restraint as high as possi-
ble.
When installing a child restraint system,
adjust the height of the head restraint or
remove it for fitting the child restraint, as
necessary.
