NOTE:
Do not reverse the head restraints (making the
rear of the head restraint face forward) in an
attempt to gain additional clearance to the back
of your head.
REACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINTS — FRONT
S
EATS
The front driver and passenger seats are
equipped with Reactive Head Restraints (RHR).
In the event of a rear impact, the RHR will
automatically extend forward minimizing the
gap between the back of the occupants head
and the RHR. The RHR will automatically return to their
normal position following a rear impact. If the
RHR do not return to their normal position, see
an authorized dealer immediately.

Head Restraint

To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the
head restraint. To lower the head restraint,
push the adjustment button located at the base
of the head restraint and push downward on the
head restraint.
To remove the head restraint, remove the seat
belt from the seat belt loop. Raise the head
restraint as far as it can go. Then, push the adjustment button and the
release button at the base of each post while
pulling the head restraint up. To reinstall the
head restraint, put the head restraint posts into
the holes while pushing the adjustment button
and release button. Then, adjust it to the
appropriate height.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to recline the front seat
before removing the head restraint to provide
enough clearance from the roof.
WARNING!

the risk of neck injury in the event of a
crash.
Head restraints should never be adjusted
while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a
vehicle with the head restraints improperly
adjusted or removed could cause serious
injury or death in the event of a collision.
