58 Seats and Restraints
Head Restraints The vehicle ’ s front seats have
adjustable head restraints in the
outboard seating positions.
{ WarningWith head restraints that are not
installed and adjusted properly,
there is a greater chance that
occupants will suffer a neck/
spinal injury in a crash. Do not
drive until the head restraints for
all occupants are installed and
adjusted properly.
If your vehicle has rear head
restraints that fold down, always
return them to the full upright
position whenever an occupant is
seated in the seat. Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of the restraint is at the same
height as the top of the occupant's
head. This position reduces the
chance of a neck injury in a crash.

adjustable head restraints in the
outboard seating positions. Pull the head restraint up to raise it.
Try to move the head restraint to

seatback, and push the head
restraint down. Try to move the
head restraint after the button is

against your body. Instead, it will
be in front of you. In a crash, you
could go into it, receiving neck or
other injuries.
The lap belt could go up over
your abdomen. The belt forces
would be there, not at your pelvic
bones. This could cause serious
internal injuries.
For proper protection when the
vehicle is in motion, have the
seatback upright. Then sit well
back in the seat and wear the
safety belt properly. Do not have a seatback reclined if
the vehicle is moving.
