Adjusting the Head Restraints
Your vehicle is equipped with head restraints in all seating positions. Head 
restraints are most effective for protection against whiplash and other \
rear-impact
crash injuries.
The center of the back of the occupant’s head 
should rest against the center of the restraint. The
tops of the occupant’s ears should be level with the 
center height of the restraint.
To raise the head restraint: Pull it upward.
To lower the head restraint: Push it down while
pressing the release button.
To remove the head restraint: Pull the restraint up
as far as it will go. Then push the release button, 
and pull the restraint up and out.
To reinstall a head restraint: Insert the legs back 
in place, then adjust the head restraint to an
appropriate height while pressing the release
button. Pull up on the restraint to make sure it is 
locked in position.
In order for the head restraint system to work properly:
• Do not hang any items on the head restraints, or from the restraint legs\
.
• Do not place any object between an occupant and the seat-back.
• Install each restraint in its proper location.
Position head in the
center of the head
restraint.
Improperly positioning head restraints reduces their effectiveness and 
increases the likelihood of serious injury in a crash.
Make 
sure head  restraints  are in place  and positioned  properly before driving.
WARNING
Failure to reinstall, or correctly reinstall, the head restraints can re\
sult in
severe injury during a crash.
Always replace the head restraints before driving.
