Front head restraints are most effective for
protection against whiplash and other rear-
impact crash injuries when the center of the
back of the occupant's head rests against the
center of the restraint. The tops of the
occupant's ears should be level with the
center height of the restraint.
To raise the head restraint:
Pull it upward.
To lower the head restraint:

button.

reduces their effectiveness and increases
the likelihood of serious injury in a crash.

properly:
•
Do not hang any items on the head restraints, or
from the restraint legs.
•
Do not place any object between an occupant and
the seat-back.
•
Install each restraint in its proper location.
