WARNING
Driving without head restraints or with improperly adjusted head restraints increases the risk
of serious injuries in a collision.
Always drive with the head restraints in place and properly adjusted to help minimize the
risk of neck injury in a crash.
The driver and front passenger must have a properly adjusted head restraint to minimize
the risk of neck injury in a crash. Each head restraint must be adjusted according to the
occupants' size so that the upper edge is even with the top of the person's head, but no lower
than eye level. Always sit so that the back of your head is as close as possible to the head
restraint.
Never adjust head restraint while driving.
Removing and reinstalling the front head restraints
Fig. 47 Removing front head restraints.
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
All seats are equipped with head restraints. The head restraints on the rear bench seat are not
removable.
Removing the front head restraints
Sit in the back seat behind the head restraint you want to remove. Pull the head restraint all the
way up ⇒ in Adjusting the front head restraints. Recline the backrest with the head restraint so
that there is enough overhead clearance to remove it.
Slide a flat object, such as a plastic credit card, underneath the right side of the cap on the right-
hand seat guide rod ⇒
fig. 47 (2) to unlock the head restraint.
Push the flat object (plastic card) in against the guide rod to depress a release button located
under the cap (not visible).
Use one hand to hold the release button in with the flat object. With your other hand, lift the same
guide rod slightly to expose a notch in the rod at the bottom (can be seen and felt with fingers). The
right-hand guide rod is now released.
To release the left-hand guide rod, press button
(1) in (towards guide rod) and hold.
Pull the head restraint out completely while holding button
(1).
