FRONT-SEAT ACTIVE HEAD

RESTRAINTS

WARNING

Always adjust the head restraints prop-

erly as specified in this section. Failure

to do so can reduce the effectiveness of

the Active Head Restraint.

Active Head Restraints are designed to

supplement other safety systems. Al-

ways wear seat belts. No system can

prevent all injuries in any accident.

Do not attach anything to the head re-

straint stalks. Doing so could impair

Active Head Restraint function.

The Active Head Restraint moves forward utiliz-

ing the force that the seatback receives from the

occupant in a rear-end collision. The movement

of the head restraint helps support the occu-

pant’s head by reducing its backward movement

and helping absorb some of the forces that may

lead to whiplash-type injuries.
Active Head Restraints are effective for collisions

at low to medium speeds in which it is said that

whiplash injury occurs most.
Active Head Restraints operate only in certain

rear-end collisions. After the collision, the head

restraints return to their original positions.
Properly adjust the Active Head Restraints as

described earlier in this section.
