NOTE: The center head restraint can be adjusted when
occupied, or removed for Child Seat Tethering. To remove
the head restraint, raise it as far as it can go by pulling
upward. Then, push the release button at the base of the
post while pulling the head restraint upward. To reinstall
the head restraint, put the head restraint posts into the
holes and push downward. Then, adjust the head restraint
to the appropriate height.
WARNING!
• ALL the head restraints MUST be reinstalled in the
vehicle to properly protect the occupants. Follow the
re-installation instructions above prior to operating
the vehicle or occupying a seat.
• Sitting in a seat with the head restraint in its lowered
position could result in serious injury or death in a
collision. Always make sure the outboard head re-
straints are in their upright positions when the seat is
to be occupied.
NOTE: For proper routing of a Child Seat Tether, refer to
“Occupant Restraints” in “Safety” for further information.
WARNING!
• A loose head restraint thrown forward in a collision
or hard stop could cause serious injury or death to
occupants of the vehicle. Always securely stow re-
moved head restraints in a location outside the
occupant compartment.
