Active head restraints (front seats)
If the vehicle detects an impact dur-
ing a rear-end collision, the front
part of the head restraint moves for-
ward and upward to help reduce the
risk of whiplash to the seat occu-
pant.
When reversing, even a small amount
of force applied from the rear, such as
a minor rear impact, may cause the
head restraints to move.
Removing the head restraints
■
For removal and installation of the head restraint, contact your Lexus dealer.
Adjusting the height of the head restraints (except rear center seat)
■
Make sure that the head restraints are
adjusted so that the center of the head
restraint is closest to the top of your ears.
Rear center seat
■
Make sure to pull the head restraint forward when using the rear center seat.
Active head restraints
■
The active head restraint on the front passenger seat will not activate if the seat is
●
unoccupied. However, it may activate during a rear-end collision if luggage is in the
seat or the seat belt is fastened.
Once the active head restraint has activated, the head restraint remains protruded
●
forward and upward. After it has operated, have it repaired at your Lexus dealer.
