WARNING:
o For maximum effectiveness in case
of an accident, the headrest should be
adjusted so the middle of the head-
rest is at the same height of the center
of gravity of an occupant's head. Gen-
erally, the center of gravity of most
people's head is similar 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 seatback is not recommended.
