WARNING!

The head restraints for all occupants must be prop-
erly adjusted prior to operating the vehicle or occu-
pying a seat. Head restraints should never be ad-
justed while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a
vehicle with the head restraints improperly adjusted
or removed could cause serious injury or death in the
event of a collision.

Active Head Restraints — Front Seats
Active Head Restraints are passive, deployable compo-

nents, and vehicles with this equipment cannot be readily

identified by any markings, only through visual inspec-

tion of the head restraint. The Active Head Restraints

(AHR) will be split in two halves, with the front half

being soft foam and trim, the back half being decorative

plastic.

When AHRs deploy during a rear impact, the front half

of the head restraint extends forward to reduce the gap

between the back of the occupant’s head and the AHR.

This system is design to reduce the risk of injury to the

driver or front passenger in certain types of rear impacts.

Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things To Know

Before Starting Your Vehicle” for further information.
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the head

restraint. To lower the head restraint, press the push

button, located at the base of the head restraint, and push

downward on the head restraint.
