Honda 2005 Civic 2 Door, Owner'S Manual

Page: 17 / 308

Adjust the driver’s head restraint so
the back of your head rests against
the center of the restraint.
Reclining a seat-back so that the
shoulder part of the belt no longer
rests against the occupant’s chest
reduces the protective capability of
the belt. It also increases the chance
of sliding under the belt in a crash
and being seriously injured. The
farther a seat-back is reclined, the
greater the risk of injury.
See page for how to adjust the
seat-backs.
Have passengers adjust their head
restraints properly as well. Taller
persons should adjust their restraint
as high as possible.
When a passenger is seated in the
rear center seating position, make
sure the head restraint is adjusted to
its highest position.
See page for how to adjust the
head restraints.
Properly adjusted head restraints
will help protect occupants from
whiplash and other crash injuries.

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 seat.
Improperly positioning head
restraints reduces their
effectiveness and you can be
seriously injured in a crash.
Make sure head restraints are
in place and positioned properly
before driving.
