Front head restraints

Correctly adjusted head restraint

A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the
risk of injury to cervical vertebrae in the event of
an accident.

Adjusting the head restraint
Correctly adjust the head restraints of all

occupied seats; otherwise, there is an increased
risk of injury in an accident.◀

Height

Adjust the head restraint so that its center is ap‐
proximately at ear level.

Distance

Adjust the distance so that the head restraint is
as close as possible to the back of the head.

Active head restraint

In the event of a rear-end collision with a certain
severity, the active head restraint automatically
reduces the distance from the head.

Reduced protective function

Do not use seat or head restraint cov‐
ers.

Do not hang objects, e.g., clothes hangers,
on the head restraints.

Do not attach accessories to the seat or
head restraint.

Otherwise, the protective function of the active
head restraint will be impaired and the personal
safety of the occupants will be endangered.◀
