GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE 35
HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of
injury by restricting head movement in the event of
a rear impact. Head restraints should be adjusted
so that the top of the head restraint is located
above the top of your ear.
NOTE:
Do not reverse the head restraints (making the
rear of the head restraint face forward) in an
attempt to gain additional clearance to the back of
your head.
Front Head Restraints
Four-Way Head Restraints — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with front four-way
driver and passenger head restraints.
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the
head restraint. To lower the head restraint, push
the adjustment button, located at the base of the
head restraint, and push downward on the head
restraint.
To adjust the head restraint forward, pull the top of
the head restraint toward the front of the vehicle
as desired and release. To adjust the head
restraint rearward, pull the top of the head
restraint to the forward most position and release.
The head restraint will return to the rear most
position.
Forward Adjustment
NOTE:
Four-way head restraints have seven tilt/locking
positions. When pulling fully forward, the head
restraint will spring back to the untilted, rearward
most position when released.
Two-Way Head Restraints — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with front two-way
driver and passenger head restraints.
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the
head restraint. To lower the head restraint, push
the adjustment button, located at the base of head
restraint, and push downward on the head
restraint.
Head Restraint Adjustment Button Location
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with a front bench seat,
the center head restraint is not adjustable or
removable.
WARNING!
All occupants, including the driver, should not
operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s seat until
the head restraints are placed in their proper
positions in order to minimize the risk of neck
injury in the event of a crash.
Head restraints should never be adjusted
while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a vehicle
with the head restraints improperly adjusted
or removed could cause serious injury or
death in the event of a collision.
