Safety features of your vehicle
Lumbar support (if equipped)

switch on the side of the seat.

switch to increase support, or the
rear portion of the switch, to

Headrest (for front seat)
The driver's and front passenger's
seats are equipped with a headrest

The headrest not only provides com-
fort for the driver and front passen-
ger, but also helps protect the head
and neck in the event of a collision.

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 of the centre
of gravity of an occupant's
head. Generally, the centre 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 cush-
ion that holds the body away
from the seatback is not rec-
ommended.
• 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
position of the driver's seat
whilst the vehicle is in motion.
