How It Works
When you are driving at night above 25 mph (40 km/h) and the headlight\

nges
between low and high beams depending on the brightness of the vehicle li\

If a vehicle is detected ahead of you, the headlights stay in low beams.\
If the
system does not detect any vehicles ahead of you, the headlights change \
to high
beams.
Certain conditions, such as weather and brightness of other vehicles’\
lights, can
affect system operation.

lever toward you until the indicator flashes twice.

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.
Front and second-row head restraints
To remove the head restraint: Pull the restraint up
as far as it will go. Then press the release button(s),
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(s). Pull up on the restraint to make sure it is
locked in position.
Folding down the third-row head restraints
To fold down: Pull the strap.
To return to upright position: Pull up the head and

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
