WARNING
Always drive with the head restraints
installed when seats are being used
and make sure they are properly
installed:
Driving with the head restraints not
installed is dangerous. With no support
behind your head, your neck could be
seriously injured in a collision.
After installing a head restraint, try
lifting it to make sure that it does not
pull out:
Driving with an unsecured head
restraint is dangerous as the
effectiveness of the head restraint will
be compromised which could cause it
to unexpectedly detach from the seat.
CAUTION
When installing a head restraint,
make sure that it is installed correctly
with the front of the head restraint
facing forward. If the head restraint is
installed incorrectly, it could detach
from the seat during a collision and
result in injury.
The head restraints on each of the
front and rear seats are specialized to
each seat. Do not switch around the
head restraint positions. If a head
restraint is not installed to its correct
seat position, the effectiveness of the
head restraint during a collision will
be compromised which could cause
injury.
▼ Folding/Unfolding (Rear outboard
seats)
The rear outboard seats are equipped
with foldable head restraints.
WARNING
Always drive with the head restraints
in their upright positions when the
rear seats are occupied, and make
sure they are securely locked in place:
Driving with the head restraints folded
down is dangerous. With no support
behind your head, your neck could be
seriously injured in a collision.
Always operate the strap to unlock
and fold down the head restraint:
If the head restraint is folded down
without unlocking it, the lock
mechanism of the head restraint may
become damaged and the head
restraint may not be able to stay in a
secured position. Driving the vehicle
with the head restraint in such a
condition is dangerous as impact to
the occupant's head cannot be
prevented during emergency braking or
in a collision, which could result in a
serious injury or death.
CAUTION
Do not place your finger in the
moving parts of the head restraint
when operating the head restraint. If
the head restraint is operated with
your finger placed in a moving part
of the head restraint, your finger
could get caught resulting in injury.
Do not leave the head restraint
raised up when folding a seatback. If
a seatback is folded while the head
restraint is left raised up, the head
restraint could contact the front seat
depending on the front seat position,
and therefore, the front seat,
seatback, and the head restraint
surfaces could become damaged.
