NOTICE
Adjusting the Seats
Make seat adjustments before driving to ensure the best comfort and safe\
ty.
 Adjusting the Front Seats Adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible while 
allowing you to maintain full control of the vehicle. 
You should be able to sit upright and well back in the 
seat, adequately press the pedals without leaning 
forward, and grip the steering wheel comfortably. 
The passenger’s seat should be adjusted so that it 
is as far back from the front airbag in the dashboard 
as possible.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Transport Canada 
recommend that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the ce\
nter of the 
steering wheel and the chest.
Reclining the seat-back too far can result in serious injury or death in\
 a crash.
Adjust the seat-back to an upright position, and sit well back in the se\
at.

Sitting improperly or out of position can result in serious injury or de\
ath in a 
crash.
Always sit upright, well back in the seat, with your feet on the floor\
.
WARNING
 Adjusting the Head Restraints
Your vehicle is equipped with head restraints in all seating positions. H\
ead 
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.
Position head in the
center of the head 
restraint.Front seat
Second- or 
third-row seat
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 dr\
iving.
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.
WARNING
 Active Head RestraintsThe driver’s and front passenger’s seats have active 
head restraints. If the vehicle is struck severely from 
the rear, the occupant properly secured with the 
seat belt will be pushed against the seat-back and 
the head restraint will automatically move forward.
This reduces the distance between the restraint and the occupant’s head. It also 
helps protect the occupants against the likelihood of whiplash and injur\
ies to the 
neck and upper spine. 
After a collision, the activated restraint should return to its normal p\
osition. If 
the restraints do not return to their normal position, or in the event o\
f a severe 
collision, have the vehicle inspected by a Honda dealer.
For a 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.
 Floor Mats
Position the front seat floor mats properly, and anchor 
them. If they are not properly positioned, the floor 
mats can interfere with the front seat functions.
Do not put additional floor mats on top of the 
anchored mats.
