Head restraints
E00403301497WARNING
l Driving without the head restraints in
place can cause you and your passengers
serious injury or death in an accident. To
reduce the risk of injury in an accident, al-
ways make sure the head restraints are in-
stalled and properly positioned when the
seat is occupied.
l Never place a cushion or similar device
on the seatback. This can adversely affect
head restraint performance by increasing
the distance between your head and the
restraint.
To adjust height
Adjust
the head restraint height so that the centre
of the head restraint is as close as possible to eye
level to reduce the chances of injury in the event of
collision. Any person too tall for the head restraint
to reach their seated eye level, should adjust the re-
straint as high as possible. To raise the head restraint, move it upward. To low-
er

the restraint, move it downward while pushing
the height adjusting knob (A) in the direction of the
arrow. After adjustment, push the head restraint
downward and make sure that it is locked. To remove
Lift

knob (A) pushed in. Installation
Confirm

that they are facing the correct direction,
and then insert them into the seatback while press-
ing the height adjusting knob (A) in the direction in-
dicated by the arrow. CAUTION
l
Confirm
that the height adjusting knob
(A) is correctly adjusted as shown in the
illustration, and also lift the head re-
straints to ensure that they do not come
out of the seatback. CAUTION
l
The
head restraints for the seats differ in
shape and size. When installing head re-
straints, make sure the head restraints
are fitted in their respective seats and do
not install the head restraints in the
wrong direction. Seat and seat belts
