OHM038048N
WARNING
For maximum effectiveness in case of an accident, the head- rest should be adjusted so the
middle of the headrest is at thesame height of the center of
gravity of an occupant's head.
Generally, the center of gravityof most people's head is simi-lar with the height of the top of
their eyes. Also, adjust the
headrest as close to your head
as possible. For this reason,the use of a cushion that holds
the body away from the seat-
back is not recommended.
Do not operate the vehicle with the headrests removed. Severe
injury to the occupants may
occur in the event of an acci-
dent. Headrests may provide
protection against neck injuries
when properly adjusted.
Do not adjust the headrest position of the driver’s seat
while the vehicle is in motion.

seatback and return it slowly. If
the seatback is returned with-
out holding it, the back of the
seat could spring forward
resulting in injury caused by
being struck by the seatback.

middle of the headrest is at thesame height of the top of the
occupant's eyes.
If the tailgate is pushed down to
close it when a passenger's
head is not against a properlyadjusted headrest or a tall per-
son is seated, the tailgate may
hit the occupant's head, which
could cause injury.

back to its upright position after
being folded down:
