are not installed and
adjusted properly, there is a
greater chance that
occupants will suffer a neck/
spinal injury in a crash. Do

adjustable head restraints in
the outboard seating
positions.
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.

restraint can be adjusted.To raise or lower the head
restraint, press the button
located on the side of the
head restraint, and pull up or
push the head restraint down,
and release the button. Pull
and push on the head restraint
after the button is released to
make sure that it is locked in
place.
The front seat outboard head
restraints are not removable.
