WARNING
• For maximum effectiveness in
case of an accident the head-
rest should be adjusted so the
middle of the headrest is at
the same height as the top of
the occupant's eyes. Also
adjust the headrest so its dis-
tance from the head is as wide
as your fist. For this reason,
the use of a cushion that
holds the body away from the
seatback is not recommend-
ed.
• Do not operate the vehicle
with the headrests removed
as severe injury to the occu-
pants may occur in the event
of an accident. Headrests may
provide protection against
neck injuries when properly
adjusted.
• Do not adjust the headrest
height while the vehicle is in
motion.
