Safety system of your vehicle
Headrest
The vehicle’s front and rear seats have
adjustable headrests. The headrests
provide comfort for passengers, but
more importantly they are designed to
help protect passengers from whiplash
and other neck and spinal injuries dur-
ing an accident, especially in a rear
impact collision.
To prevent damage, NEVER hit or
pull on the headrests.
NOTICE
To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death in an accident,
take the following precautions
when adjusting your headrests:
•
Always properly adjust the
headrests for all passengers
BEFORE starting the vehicle.
•
NEVER let anyone ride in a seat
with the headrest removed.

•
Adjust the headrests so the
middle of the headrest is at the
same height as the height of
the top of the eyes.
•
NEVER adjust the headrest
position of the driver’s seat
when the vehicle is in motion.
•
Adjust the headrest as close
to the passenger’s head as
possible. Do not use a seat
cushion that holds the body
away from the seatback.
•
Make sure the headrest locks
into position after adjusting it.
WARNING
OLF034072N
When there is no occupant in
the rear seats, adjust the height
of the headrest to the lowest
position. The rear seat headrest
can reduce the visibility of the
rear area.
