head is relaxed the back of your head is as close
as possible to the head restraint. This will sup-
port your head effectively in an accident. The
head restraint must be engaged in a detent.

make it more difficult to steer the vehicle
safely, since the height and fore-and-aft ad-
justment could move out of position when
the steering wheel is turned. You could lose
control of the vehicle as a result, cause an
accident and injure yourself and others.Warning
G
Never leave children unsupervised in the ve-
hicle. They could become trapped if they try
to adjust the steering column.
