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 of 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. Severe in‐
jury to an occupant may occur in
the event of an accident. Headr‐
ests may provide protection
against severe neck injuries when
properly adjusted.
CAUTION

r
ear seats, adjust the height of the
