Safety features of your vehicle
The rear seat is equipped with
headrests for the occupant's safety
and comfort.
The headrest not only provides
comfort for passengers, but also
helps to protect the head and neck
in the event of a collision.
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 centre of gravity of
an occupant's head. Generally, the
centre 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
injury to an occupant may occur in
the event of an accident. Head -
rests may provide protection
against severe neck injuries when
properly adjusted.

To raise the headrest, pull it up to
the desired position (1). To lower
the headrest, push and hold the
release button (2) on the headrest
support and lower the headrest to
the desired position (3).
CAUTION
When there is no occupant in the
rear seats, adjust the height of the
headrest to the lowest position. The
rear seat headrest can reduce the
visibility of the rear area.
