CAUTION
When returning the seats to their
original position: Make sure the seat belts are not
twisted or caught in the seatback
and are arranged in their proper
position and are ready to use.
Make sure the seatback is securely

ward on the top of the seatback.
Failure to do so will prevent seat
belt from proper operation. Be cer-
tain to replace the head restraints.

Head restraints

Rear For your safety and comfort, adjust the
head restraint before driving.
To raise: Pull it up.
To lower: Push it down while pressing the
lock release button.
On some models, you can also move the
head restraint forward or backward. If
such adjustment is desired, pull or push
the head restraint.
The head restraint is most effective when
it is close to your head. Therefore, using
a cushion on the seatback is not recom-
mended.
CAUTION

Adjust the center of the head re-
straint so that it is closet to the
top of your ears.
After adjusting the head restraint,
make sure it is locked in position.
Do not drive with the head re-
straints removed.

straint system on the rear seat if it
interferes with the lock mechanism of
the front seats. This can cause severe
