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

height as the top of the occupant's
head. This position reduces the
chance of a neck injury in a crash.
