Tilt angle adjustment
Tilt the head restraint.
With the comfort seat, adjust the distance
to the back of the head via the shoulder
support, refer to page 45.<
Side extensions adjustment
You can fold the side extensions on the head
restraint forward for increased lateral support in

Front head restraints, active*
The comfort seats are equipped with an active
head restraint.
In the event of a rear-end collision of corre-
sponding severity, the active head restraint
reduces the distance from the head.
Do not use seat or head restraint covers
and do not hang objects, e.g. clothes
hangers, on the head restraints or attach any
accessories to the seat or head restraint. Other-
wise, the protective function of the active head
restraint will be impaired and personal safety
endangered.<
