#
Always drive with the head restraints
installed.
#
Before driving off, make sure for every
vehicle occupant that the center of the
head restraint supports the back of the
head at about eye level.
Do not swap the head restraints of the front and
rear seats. Otherwise, you cannot adjust the
height and angle of the head restraints correctly.
Adjust the head restraint fore-and-aft position so
that it is as close as possible to the back of your
head.
& WARNING Risk of injury or death due to
incorrect seat position
The seat belt does not offer the intended
level of protection if you have not moved the
seat backrest to an almost vertical position.
When braking or in the event of an accident,
you could slide underneath the seat belt and
sustain abdominal or neck injuries, for exam‐
ple.
#
Adjust the seat properly before begin‐
ning your journey.
#
Always ensure that the seat backrest is
in an almost vertical position and that
the shoulder section of your seat belt is
routed across the center of your shoul‐
der.
* NOTE Damage to the seats when moving
the seats back
The seats may be damaged by objects when
moving the seats back.
#
When moving the seats back, make
sure that there are no objects in the
footwell or under or behind the seats.
