Seat cushion height (if equipped,
for driver’s seat)
To change the height of the seat cush‐
ion, push the lever that is located on
the outside of the seat cushion up‐
wards or downwards.
• To lower the seat cushion, push the
lever down several times.
• To raise the seat cushion, pull the lev‐
er up several times.
Headrest
The driver's and front passenger's
seats are equipped with a headrest for
the occupant's safety and comfort.
The headrest not only provides comfort
for the driver and front passenger, but
also helps to protect the head and neck
in the event of a collision.
WARNING
• For maximum effectiveness in
case of an accident, the headrest
should be adjusted so the middle
of the headrest is at the same
height as the center of gravity of
an occupant's head.
Generally, the center 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 cushion that
holds the body away from the
seatback is not recommended.
• Do not operate the vehicle with
the headrests removed as severe
injury to the occupants may occur
in the event of an accident. Headr‐
ests may provide protection
against neck injuries when proper‐
ly adjusted.
• Do not adjust the headrest posi‐
tion of the driver's seat while the
vehicle is in motion.
