The following section describes the options for adjusting and removing the head restraints. Always ensure that your sitting position is

correct (→ Sitting position).

Every seat is fitted with a head restraint. The head restraints are approved specifically for the respective seat and must not be installed

at any other seat in the vehicle.

If a seat is occupied, select the correct head restraint setting for the respective head restraint. If a seat is unoccupied, the respective

head restraint can be pushed down as far as it will go.

The rear centre head restraint (depending on vehicle equipment) is designed solely for use with the centre seat on the rear bench seat.

Therefore you should not install this head restraint in any of the other positions.

There are notches in the rods of the head restraints which enable them to engage in different positions. Only correctly mounted head

restraints can engage in the notches in the adjustment area. To prevent accidental removal of the head restraints after installation,

stops are fitted at the top and bottom of the adjustment area.

Correct head restraint adjustment

Adjust the head restraint so that its upper edge is at the same height as the top of the head, but not lower than eye level. Position the

back of your head as close to the head restraint as possible.

In vehicles with head restraints that can be adjusted forwards and backwards, position the head restraints on the front seats as close

as possible to the back of your head.

Head restraint adjustment for shorter people

Push the head restraint all the way down, even if the head is then underneath the top edge of the head restraint. There may be a small

gap between the head restraint and backrest in the lowest position.

Head restraint adjustment for taller people

Push the head restraint up as far as it will go.

WARNING

Driving without head restraints or with incorrectly adjusted head restraints increases the risk of severe or fatal injuries in the event of

an accident or sudden driving or braking manoeuvre.

● If a seat is occupied, the head restraint for that seat must always be fitted and adjusted correctly.

● If a seat is occupied, adjust the head restraint corresponding to the size of the person sitting on the seat.

● Never adjust the head restraint when the vehicle is in motion.

NOTICE
