Safety features of your vehicle Seat
Headrest for rear seat
The rear seat is equipped with headrests
in all the seating positions for the occu
-
pant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides comfort
for passengers, but also helps protect
the head and neck in the event of a colli
-
sion.
For maximum effectiveness in case of
an accident, the headrest should be
adjusted so the middle of the headrest is
at the same height of the center of grav
-
ity of an occupant's head. Generally, the
center of gravity of most people's heads
is similar with the height as 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.
Adjusting the height up and
down (if equipped)
僅 To raise the headrest, pull it up to the
desired position (1).
僅 To lower the headrest, push and hold
the release button (2) on the headrest
support and lower the headrest to the
desired position (3).
Removal and reinstallation
僅 To remove the headrest, raise it as far
as it can go then press the release
button (1) While pulling the headrest
upward (2).
僅 To reinstall the headrest, put the
headrest poles (3) into the holes while
pressing the release button (1).
Then adjust it to the appropriate height
and ensure that it locks in position.
