REAR SEAT HEAD RESTRAINTS/
HEADRESTS
WARNING
● Head restraints/headrests supplement
the other vehicle safety systems. They
may
provide additional protection
against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions.
Adjust the head
restraints/headrests properly, as speci-
fied in this section. Check the adjust-
ment after someone else uses the seat.
Do not attach anything to the head
restraint/headrest stalks or remove the
head restraint/headrest. Do not use the
seat if the head restraint/headrest has
been
removed. If the head
restraint/headrest was removed, rein-
stall and properly adjust the head
restraint/headrest before an occupant
uses the seating position. Failure to fol-
low these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness
of the head
restraints/headrests. This may increase
the risk of serious injury or death in a
collision.
The illustration shows the seating positions
equipped with head restraints/headrests. The
rear outboard seating positions are adjustable
and removable. The center rear position headrest
does not adjust and is not removable.
᭡ Indicates the seating position is equipped with
a head restraint.
Ⅲ Indicates the seating position is equipped with
a headrest.
+ Indicates the seating position is not equipped
with a head restraint or headrest.
● Your vehicle is equipped with a head
restraint/headrest that may be integrated,
adjustable or non-adjustable.
● Adjustable head restraints/headrests have
multiple notches along the stalk to lock them
in a desired adjustment position.
● The
non-adjustable head
restraints/headrests have a single locking
notch to secure them to the seat frame.
● Proper Adjustment:
– For the adjustable type, align the head
restraint/headrest so the center of your
ear is approximately level with the center
of the head restraint/headrest.
– If your ear position is still higher than the
recommended alignment, place the head
restraint/headrest at the highest position.
● If the head restraint/headrest has been re-
moved, ensure that it is reinstalled and
locked in place before riding in that desig-
nated seating position.
