GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 51

NOTE:

Do not reposition the head restraint 180 degrees

to the incorrect position in an attempt to gain addi-

tional clearance to the back of the head.

Rear Head Restraints

The rear seat is equipped with nonadjustable, but

foldable, outboard head restraints, as well as an

adjustable, removable center head restraint.

To fold down the outboard head restraints, push

the button located on the outboard side of the

head restraint.

Rear Foldable Outboard Head Restraints

To return the head restraint to its upward position,

lift up on the head restraint until it locks into place.

To raise the center head restraint, lift up on the

head restraint. To lower the center head restraint,

push the adjustment button, located at the base of

the head restraint, and push down on the head

restraint.

To remove the center head restraint, raise it as far

as it can go. Then, push the adjustment button and

the release button at the base of each post while

pulling the head restraint up.

To reinstall the head restraint, put the head

restraint posts into the holes and push downward.

Then, adjust it to the appropriate height using the

adjustment button. For information on child seat

tether routing, see Ú page 324.

NOTE:

Lower the center head restraint to avoid contact

with the center console when folding the seat

down.

WARNING!

 A loose head restraint thrown forward in a

collision or hard stop could cause serious

injury or death to occupants of the vehicle.

Always securely stow removed head

restraints in a location outside the occupant

compartment.

 ALL the head restraints MUST be reinstalled in

the vehicle to properly protect the occupants.

Follow the reinstallation instructions above

prior to operating the vehicle or occupying a

seat.

WARNING!

 Do not drive the vehicle without the rear seat

head restraints installed while passengers are

occupying the rear seat. In a collision, people

riding in this area without the head restraints

installed are more likely to be seriously injured

or killed.
