Safety

Head restraint

The front seats in the Saab 9-5 are 
equipped with Saab Active Head Restraints 
(SAHRs). These reduce the risk of whiplash 
injury if the car is hit from behind.
In the event of a rear-end crash, the body is 
forced back against the backrest. This, in 
turn, causes the mechanism to press the 
head restraint forward and upward, thus lim-
iting the backward movement of the head.
The SAHR is a mechanical system, actu-
ated by body weight. The mechanism is built 
into the top of the backrest, where it is con-
nected to the head restraint.
Therefore, the SAHR does not need to be 
replaced after a minor rear-end crash.

The head restraint can be raised or lowered 
and is adjustable in various positions. 

• Raising: grasp the head restraint on both 

sides and pull it straight up. 

• Lowering: press the catch on the left-hand 

side of the attaching point and press down 
the head restraint.

Rear-seat head restraints

9-5 Sedan: The rear head restraints have 
three adjustment positions for passenger 
comfort. 
They can also be folded down to increase 
the driver’s rearward vision when the seat is 
unoccupied.
9-5 SportCombi: The height of the rear 
head restraints can be adjusted by depress-
ing the catch on the left-hand collar in the 
same way as the front head restraints.

WARNING

• Adjust the head restraint so that your 

head is optimally supported and the 
center of the head restraint is at ear 
height, thus reducing the likelihood of 
neck injury in a crash.

• Raise the head restraints in the seat 

that are occupied.
